Research: Other
During my undergraduate and graduate studies I conducted research in fields other than computer science. Following are some examples:

- The Petit Plutarch Project: an example of how computer science can be used to enhance the study of history, this visualization connects Roman generals by the gods and goddesses associated with them by Plutarch in his Lives. I worked on this in my free time as proof-of-concept and to experiment with visualization tools.
- Master thesis and undergraduate thesis.
- A graduate seminar paper I had written on the Iconography of Venus evolved into a work I presented at a conference of classics. See Publications.
- Other topics I researched in the past include the portrayal of natural order in the Book of Job and the apocryphal Book of Enoch; cartography at the service of European colonialism in 16th-century America; the US National Prohibition in 1919-1933; and motifs of failure in the works of Franz Kafka and Jorge Luis Borges. While I do not intend to publish this work here (it is written in Hebrew), I welcome inquiries via e-mail.
