There’s an area of computer science and/or psychology that’s really quite fascinating called “human factors” or “usability testing.” It involves studying ways of how to make computer software, web sites, and other things (the field actually extends into industrial design) more usable by people. Here are some web sites on this topic:

I’d encourage you to read some books by Donald A. Norman (listed on the first URL I gave you). It’s a fascinating field.

I should also put in a word for my own field, psychology. Vocational testing suggests that people who are both artistic and interested in science and mathematics are happy as psychologists. Psychology isn’t just doing therapy; there’s a whole range of interesting basic research being done by psychologists, including the “human factors” stuff I mentioned above.
