Himanshu Tiwari is a Systems Engineer Musician · Writer white room black room building software, networks & AI systems — and the useful territory between disciplines. crafting ambient cosmic experiences & elegant code — poems, cinema, rabbit holes. Somewhere between signals, systems, and silence . Part engineer, part systems thinker, part music-maker. Full-time collector of rabbit holes.
Some things I make do not need a reason . Electronic music as himu , verses in the margins, films I think about for weeks.
