Dan Maynes-Aminzade (aka Monzy) is a Nerdcore hip-hop artist, programmer and PhD student at Stanford under the tutelage of Professor Terry Winograd. He is a member of the Stanford HCI Group. A few years ago, Monzy wrote a dis track ("Drama in the PhD") directed at MC Plus+, trying to start a West-coast/Midwest rivalry (and bring attention to the nerdcore hip-hop scene). Later, Monzy wrote another track ("Kill Dash Nine") for the same purpose.
