About Luxi

Back in the days, when computers were a new thing, let’s say Web 1, is when I played on a black screen with neon green codes of… C and : or something?
Growing up in a family full of engineers, where my grandfathers and father worked on sound technology, televisions, textiles in their individual careers, problem-solving is second-nature to me. I had broken a lot of things that I took apart to understand how they’re made. I was also a very active child who broke furniture and got myself hurt play-practicing martial arts. Besides worrying the adults, it wasn’t bad enough for me to become a cyborg.
While studying art in school, I got really bored hanging out with schoolmates who made yarn sculptures all day. But I was also bored of writing code where one wrong line can break an entire program. It wasn’t until my Rainbow Catcher school project, that I realized I need to simultaneously exercise my left and right brain. For the project, I alchemized weather data to visually map rainbows within a specific driving distance. My professor loved it and kept it as her course reference.
