I developed the theme from what my supervisor had told me that there is no distinction between the colors of blue and green in Welsh. I thought that interdisciplinary researchers do not only see the distinction between these two colors but we are also creating a new color which can be beautiful (turquoise).<\/p>\n<p>I also used a picture of me wearing blue and green sweater standing in front of panels of different colors (esp. green, turquoise and blue!) to go with the analogy. (The picture was taken six years ago at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York but some friends thought that I went to take the picture after I had got the idea!)<\/p>\n<p>I enjoyed my first oral presentation at a conference a lot and received some positive feedback from my audience and friends.
