Francisco Castro Miranda (Guadalajara, 1980) estudió la Licenciatura en Diseño para la Comunicación Gráfica en la Universidad de Guadalajara (UdG). Desde hace 10 años, su estudio insignia Curious Flux ha producido un importante corpus de ilustraciones, proyectos editoriales, de identidad gráfica y corporativa, fotografía, arte digital animado y tipografía. Asimismo, ha incurrido en el campo de las instalaciones, el arte en papel y el diseño/creación de objetos utilitarios y decorativos. En tal diversidad de manifestaciones creativas se encuentra, como hilo conductor, una búsqueda estética ecléctica, lúdica y fresca, a menudo inspirada de la tradición gráfica popular mexicana.
   Las creaciones de Curious Flux han sido publicadas en diversas revistas (Chilango, Life and Style México, Errr Magazine, Blink), recopiladas por editoriales (“Los Logos 6”, Gestalten @ Berlín, Alemania, 2012) o expuestas en diversos centros culturales o galerías nacionales e internacionales (Flurioux @ Guadalajara, México, 2011; Heir today, gone tomorrow @ Austin, EUA, 2011). Recientemente ha establecido colaboraciones multidisciplinarias con reconocidos actores de la escena musical (Montag, Carpark Records @ Washington, DC 2013) o político-cultural (Artículo 19 Latinoamérica @ CDMX, México, 2014 u Horizontal @ CDMX, México, 2014-2015).
