Anna Matsumoto / antech

Creative Technologist / HCI Researcher

I design new interfaces for expression—bridging sound, movement, touch, and visual media through multisensory, embodied interaction.

My work weaves together design, computation, and accessibility, exploring how technology can shape new forms of creative expression.

Previously at Stanford SHAPE Lab, currently exploring at Morphing Matter Lab as a Steve Jobs Archive Fellow.

Interactive Multimedia

How can the body itself become an instrument for multisensory expression and communication?
(Gesture, Rhythm, Physical Interfaces)

Audio-Reactive Haptic Spheres / 2025

Transforms audio signals into inflation, vibration, and motion.
Bridges sound and touch to explore how multisensory feedback can expand shared perception.

The Haptographer / 2025

Turns touch into sound, and sound into shape.
Explores how multisensory interaction can reshape performance through touch, sound, and form.

Doppelgänger Instruments / 2024

A live performance with one’s past self — an invisible duet across time, where gestures become sound and memory takes form as harmony.

Knowledge is Power / 2025

Audiences trace the path of a wheelchair ramp—feeling the distance, hearing the stories. 10 minutes immersive AR narrative built from real accessibility experiences.
