Derrick Meadows architects creative technology systems that bridge design, code, and live performance. With expertise spanning full-stack development, entertainment technology, and design systems, he delivers solutions that synthesize diverse technical domains into cohesive experiences.

His work integrates AI-enhanced workflows, real-time graphics systems, and performance-critical infrastructure for live events and digital products. From DJ/VJ performances operating Disguise, Millumin, and Resolume, to architecting design systems and building full-stack applications, his practice combines technical precision with creative expression.

Based in Washington, DC, Derrick operates Dot Matrix LLC (est. 2019), a creative technology studio delivering design, development, engineering, and live performance services. His IATSE Local 22 work spans two roles: as a Video Technician with GLP, Inc. at the DC Convention Center (2015–2022), leading video wall and projection builds, trade show and breakout room production, and general session graphics and playback; and at Warner Theater, where he served as projectionist, screen switcher/V1, and graphics and playback operator (2019–2022).

Technical foundations include LLM-directed development in TypeScript, React, and Next.js (native front-end web development and UI/UX design), WebGL/Canvas real-time graphics, and media server systems (Disguise, Millumin, Resolume). Professional certifications include Disguise Designer, Creative Sequencing, and Projection Mapping Workflows (2025), Panasonic Certified Projectionist (2025), Millumin 5 (LMG, 2025), Millumin 4 (Nationwide University, 2023), Resolume (Evolve Technology, 2023), and Infiled Certified LED Technician (2023). Multi-agent AI orchestration, RAG systems, and hybrid LLM deployments are integrated into creative workflows, combining automation with human-centered design principles.
