art installation

Today at an art installation, while opening up my backpack to get some markers out, when I opened up another zippered section unintentionally, and saw my keyboard and laptop inside, something inside me became slightly alert to the "discrepancy" I felt between my colorful/marker-related interests and my programming interests and occupation. The alert desired to prevent someone else from seeing both of these sides of me at the same time. Or perhaps to prevent others from seeing the side of me that I perceive to be less "apt", or "adequate", for the setting I am currently in: this artistic installation.
