this is me

Hi

I rarely start with a plan.

I’m passionate about building projects that definitely did not exist before.

That’s how I ended up decoding Formula 1 telemetry to build an AI race engineer. It’s how an interest in Black music turned into an interactive world about music, technology, and history. It’s also how thinking about light pollution somehow became a LEGO city wired with circuits.

I like making things that sit between categories.

Code that becomes an experience.
Physics that becomes something visual.
Research that becomes something you can walk through.
A random question that gets slightly out of control.

I’m Shihengping Zhang.

I build things mostly because I want to know what happens when an idea stops living in my head.
