Natalia Delilah York: The Holographic Dreamweaver 🌌✈️

"I don’t just design light—I chase it across continents, bottle it in holograms, and set it free in your imagination."

From Backpacker to Billion-Pixel Pioneer

Picture this: a 23-year-old me, sleeping in a hammock strung between palm trees in Bali, surviving on mangoes and WiFi passwords, selling hand-painted postcards to fund my next train ticket. Fast forward five years, and I’m standing in a Tokyo skyscraper, watching my holographic constellations dance across a 360° dome for a luxury brand launch. How? Magic. (Okay, and 18-hour coding marathons fueled by lychee Red Bull.)

My journey began when I traded my art school diploma for a one-way ticket to Reykjavik. I was obsessed with the Northern Lights—how they flirted with the sky, untouchable yet intoxicating. I wanted to bend that light, to make it kiss fingertips. So I taught myself holography in hostel common rooms, using pirated software and a secondhand projector. My first "studio" was a repurposed surfboard bag. 💻🌊

The Breakthrough That Almost Broke Me

2019: My big shot—a collab with a Parisian avant-garde theater. Three days before opening night, my prototype literally caught fire during testing. (Turns out, cheap Thai circuit boards + high-voltage lasers = flambé.) I rebuilt the entire installation in 72 hours, stitching code between panic attacks and espresso shots. The night it premiered? The audience cried. The lead actor quit to "pursue holographic spirituality." And I realized: I could turn meltdowns into miracles.

Why Follow My Chaos?

• I turn airports into offices. Last month, I coded a waterfall hologram for a Dubai hotel from a Mongolian yurt while nomadic herders fed me fermented mare’s milk. (Yes, it’s as disgusting as it sounds.)
• My fails are fireworks. That time my AI mistook a CEO’s face for a pizza and projected it onto the Burj Khalifa? Viral. The lawsuit? Pending. The confidence to laugh? Priceless.
• I’ll seduce you into tech. Holography isn’t just for Elon Musk’s exes. It’s for you—the dreamer who thinks in colors too wild for reality. Let’s make them tangible. 🌀✨

Current mission: Building a holographic wildlife sanctuary where endangered animals roam your living room. (And yes, the tiger will purr if you scratch its pixelated ears.)
