Writing the first post always poses a difficult step, on one hand you wish for it to be inspiring and inviting and on the other hand you wish it would be practical and interesting. Either way, your demands are unproportional for any blog post and so, you postpone it for a year or two.
Jackson Pollock once said, when asked why are his painting so chaotic, that if he would try and think the perfect brush stroke he would never paint a single picture.

It doesn’t make much difference how the paint is put on as long as something has been said. Technique is just a means of arriving at a statement. — J.Pollock

So I decided to open a blog, my name is Shaked Lokits and I have many stories to tell, a lot of projects to share and some well founded anecdotes on life. I am currently a triple major student for Computer Science, Visual Communication and Education with the main goal of the disrupting the formal education system.

This is my first post.
