Matthew Prebeg: I am a multidisciplinary artist, designer, and researcher. I also go by Matt(y). Some might go so far as to say that I am a creative technologist, but I’m still figuring out what exactly that means. 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 the interplay between digital technology, traditional media and culture. My professional practice is centred on designing services and translating knowledge in healthcare. These, too, are bound to change. I am open to chatting and collaborating—you can contact me at hi@mattprebeg.com.

In response to the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR) funded the development of an international and multi-institute database of living healthcare recommendations related to COVID-19—the RecMap. In order to ensure the RecMap could be scaled and utilized by the general public, I worked closely with a team of researchers at the Hospital for Sick Children to co-design a plain language recommendation (PLR) format for each recommendation.

I supported the team in (1) designing a mechanism for engaging community members, (2) facilitated community consultations, (3) designed PLR format prototype, and (4) liaised communications between community members, researchers and web developers.

The COVID-19 RecMap PLR database is live here.
