DESCRIPTION:How do you design a coin that lands on its edge 1/3 of the tim
 e ? How might one throw accurately ? How does one walk along a straight li
 ne ? How can one visualize chance ? Each of these problems invokes geometr
 ic concepts in a probabilistic setting. I will discuss solutions to some o
 f these problems that lie at the intersection of cognition\, neuroscience 
 and behavior - &nbsp\;and thus are of relevance to art and science.
