I build stories you can touch
My projects are small experiments in how people feel, learn, and connect
I’ve always felt that the world is full of hidden doors - some made of wood, some made of ideas - and places like this one, where imagination spills into reality, remind me why I started creating in the first place. Fantasy never pulled me away from real life; it helped me understand it by teaching me to notice small emotions, quiet signals, and the invisible threads between people. That sense of wonder still shapes the way I think and build today. I don’t try to recreate magic, but I do try to make things that make people feel the way magic once made me feel: curious, understood, and connected. This photo isn’t about a costume or a setting. Rather, it's a snapshot of the part of me that still believes the extraordinary hides inside the ordinary.
Most of my ideas begin as quiet questions, and building is how I translate those questions into something real. I don’t see engineering as a rigid technical process; it feels more like a form of storytelling, where each wire, glitch, and adjustment reveals something I didn’t know before. There’s a moment I love: when a prototype flickers on for the first time, not perfectly, but just enough to show it has a pulse. These small devices and half-finished experiments aren’t achievements to me; they’re conversations between curiosity and possibility. When I work with my hands, I’m not trying to impress anyone: I’m trying to understand something I couldn’t put into words.
About
My name is Elman, and I design projects that sit at the intersection of technology, empathy, and curiosity.
I’ve always been drawn to the invisible things: small signals that reveal how people learn, interact, or feel.
Here, I’m sharing the ideas and experiments that shaped me: educational tools, environmental devices, early prototypes, and the stories behind them.
This site isn’t about achievements; it’s about the ways I think and the questions I’m still exploring.
If you’re curious about what drives me or where my ideas come from, this is the best place to start.
