Pronunciation

The way you pronounce my name is Rishabh Jay-tahn-nan-dani. That should probably help.

Favorite Demo

I liked the Loma Prieta demo because it was able to reconstruct a 3-D representation of the movement of the tectonic plates. I especially liked the way that it was able to process a lot of seemingly unrelated data (movement of the instrument needle in Hertz) to construct the velocity, position and acceleration of the respective plates in their respective directions.

Here's an article about one of the Engineering Grand Challenges on reverse-engineering the brain.
