What Is Camarts
Camarts is a personal project that cumulates all of my passions—travel, photography, design, and programming. It is a digital gallery for images I created during my journey around the world; it is a playground that allows me to experiment with new ideas in product design and emerging technologies; it is an expression of who I am.
Who Am I
My name is Dandy Tianxin Weng, and I was born in 1995 in Guangzhou, China.
I dropped out of school when I was seven and became an autodidact. I have never returned to conventional education—yes, no high schools, no colleges, no universities, and of course, no bootcamps. My parents taught me the ability to learn, and I self-taught the rest, mostly via the internet.
I was free to spend all my time and energy pursuing my passions and nourishing my creative mind. When I was about ten, I became obsessed with graphic design, so I taught myself how to use vector graphics software and started drawing and designing things. When I turned twelve, I became deeply interested in photography, and I learned how to operate a camera and create meaningful images. A year later, programming became my newfound interest, and I began to teach myself to code. By the time I was fifteen, I wanted to connect the dots between everything I loved and make cool stuff, so I started to build Camarts.
