See-ming Lee 李思明 (SML) is a designer and technologist with 25+ years of professional experience creating user experience (UX) and interactive media for Fortune 500 companies and startups. He is also the Founder of RoyaleAPI, a website that provides real-time analytics on battle data for the Supercell mobile game Clash Royale.

As the Executive Director of SML Universe, a Hong Kong-based company specializing in interactive media, See-ming leverages his diverse skill set as a cross-disciplinary synergist to assist international Fortune 500 companies with their websites, advertising campaigns, interactive installations, and prototypes.

Motivated by the belief that important ideas often lack the necessary coverage, he pursued a path as a photographer and photojournalist. He documents meaningful events and individuals, aiming to give a voice to those who are marginalized due to bigotry and prejudice. Some of his photos can be found on Getty Images.

After graduating from Yale University in 1999, See-ming moved to New York and started working as Designer (1999-2000) for IconNicholson / LBi International. He became the first cross-competency employee in the company’s history worldwide, and was promoted as Senior Designer and Senior Interface Engineer (2000-2002), and as Art Director and Senior Interface Engineer (2002-2008). With the desire to gain experience working for startups in preparation to open his own business, See-ming joined Massify as Design Director (2008) and afterwards as Chief Creative Officer (2009-2010) for Artsy. In 2012, he moved to Hong Kong and established his own consultancy firm.

See-ming’s projects have been featured in The Associated Press, BBC, Business Week, CBC, CNet, CNN, Forbes, International Herald Tribune, New York Times, Red Herring, ReadWriteWeb, Reuters, USA Today, Vanity Fair, Washington Post and Yahoo!

His projects have also been recognized in multiple international design and technology awards including the prestigious Omni Intermedia Awards, One Show Interactive awards, WWW Health Awards, WMA Web Awards and Graphis Interactive Annuals. Past clients include Bank of America, Bristol-Myers Squibb, British Airways, David's Bridal, EMI Music Publishing, IBM, IconMedialab, Prada, Regus Group, MasterCard Advisors, MasterCard International, McKinsey & Company, Morgan Stanley, WebMD, Ziff Davis Media, and Yale University.

See-ming holds a B.A. in art with a concentration in graphic design from Yale University.

With a catchy, soothing sound and an imaginative and whimsical style, Vanchy drives listeners into poetic worlds with sounds that are hard to ignore and forget. He creates music that evolves and tells stories that are uplifting, deep and meaningful. In his words, "For me, music is not just a nice sounding beat. There must be a story, even if it doesn't have lyrics, and a tone and accent that set the drive and emphasis of the music. My goal is to create sounds that engage people in clear and conscious states. Consciousness, progressiveness and awareness are very important words for me and are always part of my music.”

His writing process always starts with an image and a story. In his words, "My music creative process is very visual. Without an image or personal experience, it is impossible for me to sculpt my sound vision. I could storyboard a film right now for all my songs and know exactly where each visual falls. I'm also a visual designer and photographer and my ideas always go along with my music. Just like water and air, it is hard for me to imagine the world without these two elements. My life is like a motion picture that always comes with a soundtrack." 


His music influence comes from diverse music styles: 

William Orbit, Ulrich Schnauss, Moderat, Röyksopp, Delerium, Massive Attack, John Digweed, Erik Satie, Claude Debussy, Stravinsky, Orbital, The Orb, Eat Static, Tangerine Dream, Talk-Talk, Depeche Mode, New Order, and too many others to mention. 

Vanchy is currently working on his upcoming EP, with plans to release it in September 2011.
