Erik D. Demaine,
a Canadian American mathematician, computer scientist and professor of computer science at Massachusetts Institute of Technology and member of the Theory of Computation group at MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.
His research interests include data structures such as binary search trees, the mathematics of paper folding as well as combinatorial game theory.
Mathematical origami artwork by Erik and his father Martin L. Demaine was part of the Design and the Elastic Mind exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art in 2008 [2].
