Quick Bio
What can I say? I’m Lilian, an unceremonious interactive designer who swears, drinks and goes off on spiels about design to excess. My birthday’s on the twenty-sixth of August. Had I been born a month and a bit earlier I would marked Marcel Duchamp’s one hundredth birthday and by the transitive property I would have been destined for scandal. I got into art which is close enough.
I’ve always been an internet flâneur, intrepidly exploring the vast corners of the internet without leaving a very big impression. Often that leads people to believe that I’m a sombre, pompously detached character or that I’m simply a creepy voyeur who stalks the internet. The latter may possibly be true, the former is simply a myth.
My hobbies include yanking my boyfriend’s lip piercing, ogling food, watching strange films, condensing CSS and getting mauled by my cat but not necessarily in that order or at the same time. It really depends on the day I’m having. If I had to make a list of artists and designers I would love to meet and respectively ‘do stuff to’ I’d probably disturb a lot of people. Their names will be spared.
When it comes to art, I like things which are avant-garde, risqué and just plain silly. As for interactive design I like conceptual interpretations of the internet as a spatial journey through which a complex narrative unfolds. On a broader scale I like kinetic type, title sequences and error aesthetics.
If you love me, hate me or want to offer me a business proposition concerning your rich Nigerian uncle, do not hesitate to contact me.
