Summary
Jason Eppink is an assistant professor and creative technologist with 11 years of experience designing playful, participatory experiences that blur the lines between street art, museum curation, and digital intervention. He combines academic teaching and research in digital media with hands-on practice in augmented reality, interactive exhibitions, and public-facing hoaxes that emphasize surprise, generosity, and anti-consumerist critique. Previously a curator of digital media at the Museum of the Moving Image and a member of NEW INC, he has a track record of commissioning and producing interactive work for non-consenting audiences as well as designing immersive escape-room and AR experiences. Jason’s practice spans offline urban interventions and online mischief—summed up by his GitHub motto “online, offline, out of line”—and he brings that transgressive sensibility into classroom and museum contexts. Known for staging surprising public encounters, he pairs critical theory with practical production skills to make institutions and public space more playful and accessible.
