My name is Matthew Prebeg, and I am a multidisciplinary artist, designer, researcher, and technologist. 

There’s this old saying, “A rolling stone gathers no moss.” (1) This can mean something positive or negative, depending on who you ask. See, my dilemma is that I like gathering moss, but I also like rolling. I have moved around a lot, currently residing in Toronto, ON. My practice dynamically weaves disciplines and constantly changes, depending on my current interests or the direction the wind is blowing. I am a lifelong learner. You can think of me as a rolling stone in a moss garden.

Currently, my art practice explores digital culture, techno-ecology, and ephemera. My professional practice is centred on designing services and translating knowledge in health research. These, too, are bound to change. I am open to chatting and collaborating—you can contact me at hi@mattprebeg.com.

My CV is available here.

Adolescent depression is prevalent, but treatment can be difficult to navigate and ineffective. A multi-disciplinary team of researchers at the Cundill Centre for Child and Youth Depression developed the CARIBOU Pathway to address the need for scalable and evidence-based treatment for adolescent depression. Read more on the CARIBOU Pathway here.

To ensure the Pathway reflects the needs and interests of youth, I supported the team in designing mechanisms for youth engagement. This included: (1) developing a youth engagement strategy, (2) organizing and facilitating a youth advisory group, (3) co-designing educational material with young people*, (4) liaising communications across various stakeholder groups.

Since development, the Cundill Centre has launched a certificate program in delivering the pathway and is implementing the pathway in multiple community-based centres around Ontario.
