Conor James designs
stories that bring you in.
Technology provides the tools. The humanities provide the method.
I'm a Creative Technologist & Narrative Systems Designer based in
New York City.
A theater performance where one character's dialogue is shaped by another actor's live brainwaves. A film whose scenes and editing respond to a viewer's neural signals. A ruined Baltimore landmark, being reconstructed so you can move through its past, present, and possible future.
My work often starts the same way — a story, text, or place examined closely enough to find the structure hiding inside — and ends as an experience audiences can enter, influence, or explore.
I’m based in Brooklyn and interested in opportunities and collaborations across creative technology, immersive and interactive storytelling, cultural experiences, and film and live performance.

Three projects show the approach. Each one starts with
a story and ends as a system.

I am open to collaborations across creative technology,
cultural experiences, and live performance.
