"I've discovered something that uses all the things I've done," he says. That's no small feat. At 17 he was helping his father's colleague write risk-analysis software for nuclear power plants; by 21 he had an art degree from Yale. He got inspiration for his toys from artists in Hong Kong and Japan...
