About Chris Riebschlager

I am a creative and technical leader with over two decades of experience in the concept, strategy and execution of interactive experiences. My work includes everything from websites and web applications to immersive digital experiences for stadiums, museums, galleries and events. I\'ve taught collegiate classes on interactive installation, creative coding frameworks and interaction design. I\'m passionate about empowering teams of artists and technologists to create truly mind-blowing work.What gets me out of bed in the morning:• Creative Coding Frameworks: Touch Designer, Processing, openFrameworks and dozens of other amazing tools that thrive in the fuzzy space between art and tech.• Experience Design and Development: I love getting the chance to see people interact with the spaces and experiences I and my team create. There\'s something genuinely magical about knowing you\'ve created something people really enjoy.• Leading, mentoring, sharing: In my younger days, I was incredibly fortunate to learn from remarkable creative and technical leaders. I feel a strong obligation to pay it forward and ensure that I am empowering creative technologists to do their best work.
