— For many years as an agency owner/creative officer my work was in helping the most receptive of our clients envision stories, innovations and future phases that would be absolutely viable but most certainly challenging. Along that route, my background in psychology, neuroscience, UX-centric design, animation, emerging tech dev and last but not least empathetic communication came to bear on every moment with each human involved in pulling off a transformative collaboration.
Today, on the creation-side I bridge the translation gap for creative and technical roles and the people in them. On the organizational side I help people at all levels connect to their purpose, see possible points of connection in their product or brand story and sometimes even re-imagine their organizational structure in order to get to the next exciting chapter of their existence.
I teach workshops in inter-personal understanding with foundations in neuroscience, psychology and sociology, as well as Taoist teachings and NVC (Non Violent Communication.) Oh, and I’ve developed a co-working space, a hi-tech, private room karaoke bar & gallery as well as a teahouse for meditation and self-discovery. Get in touch if you’d like to grab tea & start something together.
— About
Christopher Wood is an explorer originally from America’s hometown, Muncie, Indiana.
That’s also the home of Ball jars, David Letterman and Garfield the cat.

UX Director: Intel, Disruptive Mobile Tech Division
Creative Director: Razorfish Emerging Experiences (awarded Audi Innovation Agency)
The theme which threads itself through all of my work has been exploration. (get ready for a run-on) Beginning briefly in biology and genetics, moved to film, discovered interactive media, developed the psychology department’s first interactive, undergrad courseware… after college assisted on three patents for a software system for modular, custom furniture… started an ad agency which ran a decade doing design, branding and brand vision for properties like Coke & Sprite, CNN & Cartoon Network, UPS and the like… started studying a particular intersect of Neuroscience and Sociology… moved into a Creative meets tech role as a Creative Director role of Razorfish’s Emerging Experiences group which operated as part startup, part research group and part strategy and positioning-arm for Razorfish’ clients such as Audi, Porsche, Mercedes, AT&T, T-Mobile... Most recently the biggest exploration/departure has led me to develop a different side of business-customer facing, public space that’s part co-work space, part incubator which focuses on the individual’s well-being… and simultaneously creating a membership-based, private room karaoke bar which gives visitors and members therapeutic release through vocalizing.
