Techartist, quasi-sage, and cyberpunk anti-hero from the future. KK brings over two decades of experience bridging technology, art, and community building. When not organizing Vancouver's AI scene, he's usually pushing boundaries in generative AI or mentoring the next wave of creative rebels.
The operational backbone of our community, Brittney keeps the machine running smoothly. From venue management to permits to emergency problem-solving, she's the wizard behind the curtain making sure every event goes off without a hitch. Think of her as KK's operational doppelgänger.
Our bridge-builder between community and industry, Matthew leads our partnership and sponsorship initiatives. With an eye for meaningful connections and a talent for relationship building, he ensures our community grows sustainably while maintaining its grassroots spirit.
The Pixel Wizard himself, Kevin makes our events look and sound amazing. He's not just running AV - he's capturing Vancouver's AI evolution through high-quality documentation while pushing the boundaries of what's possible with live event production.
Darby has explored AI tools in design, with a particular focus on AI integration in UI and the evolution of traditional creative tools to incorporate AI capabilities. His expertise includes working with AI-powered features within design tools like Figma and understanding how AI is being embedded into UI and workflows of popular creative software.
