Derek Man Lui is a man blessed with this middle name. He is fascinated by how the Internet and culture influence each other, so he’s made it his mission to live inside different Internets and cultures.
Derek grew up in San Francisco on a diet of Nintendo, burritos and fog. He then spent 7 years in Shanghai and Beijing, creating for alternate reality versions of the platforms we use everyday, all behind the Great Firewall of China. Currently, he is stationed at Wieden + Kennedy in London.
