Another Art Institute sucker? Just kidding, I respect the arts. I kind of want to say that Bokeh is japanese? It just feels like it would be Japanese. I'm probably wrong though.
The word is Japanese, yes.
No, I got a second degree in Fine Art to complement my programming degree. So I can now make designs that don't look like they were made by a drunk 4 year old. It's paying off. Slowly. But it's paying off.
Also, I'm not going to say where I got it because I could 100% be doxxed after about 10 minutes researched. My time at that college was extremely unique. But it's a unique institution and the name carries a lot of weight among those who know of it.
That actually sounds like a great complimentary degree. I'm glad its paying off for you!
It's a photography term.

I spent $54,000 to learn that. And other things. But that too.
