Hijinx World
Hijinx World is a magazine for creatives, new-media artists, and self-proclaimed experimentalists. It features both emerging and established artists, with a focus on Canadian talent.
About the maker: Liza Desya is an animation brainiac who writes and produces award-winning films. Her professional experience spans across the children's TV pipeline, working in rigging, technical direction, storyboarding, and freelance design, with a notable knack for coding tools to help streamline the animation process. Her jack-of-all-trades, master-of-fun approach lends her abilities to creative storytelling and sharp problem-solving.
In recent years, she's taken a leap into experimental 3D design using Virtual Reality sculpting and Blender. Her work is supported by musicians, indie organizations, and animation residency providers such as TAIS (Toronto Animated Image Society).
She is also the founder of Hijinx World: The Human Creativity Magazine, a weirdo-core publication that spotlights local new media artists and unconventional storytellers. Her goal is to break the exhaustingly boring patterns of the masses and give their psyches some necessary inspiration to release repressed creative potential.
