Matthew Ragan is a creative technologist and co-founder with 11 years of experience designing and delivering large-scale interactive and real-time media systems for venues and live performance. He blends an MFA in Interdisciplinary Digital Media and Performance with hands-on software leadership at organizations like Obscura Digital and MSG, where he led R&D for ultra-high-resolution, clustered rendering and the “venue of the future.” Comfortable from single-user experiences to distributed synchronous installations, he pairs systems thinking with an artist’s sensibility for interaction and storytelling. His background in educational technology and faculty-facing roles informs a collaborative approach to tooling, documentation, and team enablement. Based in Los Angeles, he brings practical production rigor—often under intense deadlines—plus an unexpected circus-arts discipline that contributes to his attention to physicality and choreography in media work. Ambitious about pushing pixels and buttons, he focuses on making immersive, reliable experiences at scale.
