03 / The person in the practice

Better ways of working.

I’m Reza Rosli, a creative technologist, trainer and practitioner in Kuala Lumpur. My practice began with Media Lab Arts, where art, technology, sound, moving image, and interaction became parts of the same creative vocabulary.

My early work moved through multimedia authoring, digital signage, audiovisual integration, and show-control systems. Wanting to understand how people actually used those systems drew me into live performance and long-running theatre collaborations, where software, content, timing, space, and audiences had to work together.

From there I found my way into startups and creative agencies, building digital products and interactive campaigns while directing multidisciplinary technology teams. That path later took me into CTO leadership for a cloud-native SaaS product and then senior consulting work across technology, organisations, and regional client teams.

Today I work independently as a multidisciplinary practitioner and consultant. I bring those threads together to help organisations make thinking visible, work with complexity, strengthen how knowledge moves, and create practical ways to learn and adapt. The Connectome reflects the same practice: an evolving map of experience, learning, ideas, and experiments rather than a flat list of roles.

The résumé shows where I’ve been; the Connectome reveals how those experiences, ideas, tools, and questions continue to shape one another.

AV systems × theatre

01

CommOne Vision → ADL · 2003–2010

Code meets the stage.

At CommOne Vision, working with sound, light, audiovisual, and show-control systems made me curious about how customers actually used the products. I followed that question into theatre, where making software and content for live productions let me explore storytelling and interaction across virtual experiences and physical devices.

Creative agencies × technical direction

02

Tribal DDB → Arc Worldwide / Leo Burnett · 2012–2018

Turn creative intent into interaction.

Across two agency chapters, I developed digital strategies and interactive work, then led multidisciplinary technology teams building digital properties and campaigns for major regional brands. The work sharpened how I translate a creative idea into systems that people can make, operate, and experience.

04 / How I approach the work

Make something.Learn something.Go again.

I move between strategy and practice. A prototype gives us something to respond to; working with people helps us see what to change.

  1. 01

    Pay attention.

    Start with people and their context. Listen, observe, and look at the system around the problem before deciding what it needs.

    Understand
  2. 02

    Connect the unexpected.

    Bring art, technology, and different perspectives into the same conversation. Design experiences that help people create together.

    Synthesise
  3. 03

    Make it tangible.

    Sketch, prototype, build. Turn a promising idea into something people can use, question, and improve.

    Prototype
  4. 04

    Test in the world.

    Notice what happens. Use feedback to adapt the work and help the team learn as it goes.

    Learn

05 / Beyond the page

Ideas that leave the page.

Some ideas grow into essays, posts, experiments, and conversations elsewhere. They reveal what I’m noticing, questioning, and developing—and give us somewhere more immediate to meet.

06 / Start somewhere else

A creative collaboration, a prototype, a team finding its way. Let’s see what we can make of it.
