Don't make the assumption that computer science is about programming or computers. To quote Dijkstra: “Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes.”

To quote Knuth:

We have seen that computer programming is an art, because it applies accumulated knowledge to the world, because it requires skill and ingenuity, and especially because it produces objects of beauty. A programmer who subconsciously views himself as an artist will enjoy what he does and will do it better. Therefore we can be glad that people who lecture at computer conferences speak about the state of the Art.
