State of Being is an experimental project exploring the human body's rhythms—pulse, breath and blink—through creative coding with p5.js, TouchDesigner and Arduino. The work transforms biometric data into five conceptual experiments. Each piece represents the fluidity and vibrancy of the self, blending colour and movement to visualise the constant, evolving state of being.

Love DLC is a gamified UI/UX redesign of Bumble designed to alleviate the pressure of digital dating for introverted users. The project restructures the onboarding experience by swapping standard keywords for introspective scales that encourage genuine self-reflection.

To make initial interactions feel more natural, the update introduces customisable avatars, guided icebreakers and Hives, which are niche communities based on shared interests. Ultimately, this redesign shifts the focus from stressful matchmaking to engaging and accessible connection building.
