Welcome!

How're you doing? Relax, fix yourself a drink.

My name is Louis Elfman. I'm a Los Angeles-based music producer, writer and UX designer. I love conveying things to people, be it by sound, by verb, or by interaction. I am an art pragmatist: I think everything can (and should?) be simply, elegantly, beautiful. I hail from a heavily artistic background, but have always been fascinated by technology, and I find myself most thrilled by areas where they converge. I'm all about championing the ways we can make our lives simpler and more enjoyable through the organic application of technology and design. We make stuff to serve us, not the other way around... I've been a web designer and project manager for the better part of the last decade, refining my obsession with user experience while moonlighting in music. I'm currently looking for projects of all sizes, scope and nature within these domains, and look forward to hearing from you.
