Ben G. R.


Ben G. R. is an artist and creative technologist from Austin, Texas.

My work explores generative art, transmedia storytelling, immersive live music, ritual, and community.
I am a problem solver who finds artistic fulfillment in facilitating the creation of collaborative works of art.

I design, create, and perform with TouchDesigner, Unreal Engine, Adobe (After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator), Blender, Ableton, QLab, Watchout, and Resolume.

My passion project is Rite of Passage.

I teach Immersive Media Studio at the University of Texas.

I direct, design, and run Shared Frequencies Radio.

I also mix sets and produce music at linktr.ee/beng.r.
