Lin Hsin Hsin is hardly the center of art discourse albeit her bibliographic information is available in 45 languages. None of her particular stylistic qualities have been discussed roundly in the snooty analog art world -- one that frowns upon the sophistication of mathematics embedded in the technological creative process.


Lin sees the rendezvous with mathematics the key to sustainable creative process. She stepped into digital media in mid-80s, and never look back. Indeed, her unconventional, paradigm shift digital media voyage is a digital marathon! Unlike many, she never set herself up as an all-seeing artistic demiurge. This artist, is an inventor, a Quantum-proof Cryptographer as well as a poet and composer, a devote mathematician/technologist, venal materialistic gains, suffered unnecessary snubs.


Lin expounds on mathematical truths and is unapologetic about the mainstream art practices. She upholds the Unified Theory of Art & Science -- the infallability and possibilities of mathematics. Even in her analog days, she paints with her own vocabularies and elements, converted oil paintings to look like watercolor, pencils or pastels. As much as she is a digital native, she pioneered handmade acid-free washi, papaya and umbrella paper. Indeed, Lin, one who defines Equation-as-a-Medium, the non-conformist, self exculpatory in her quest for a way forward, her visions and practices in digital media, from 1D to 4D, 𝘽𝙚𝙮𝙤𝙣𝙙𝘼𝙄™ in Real-Time.
