Section 01

About.

Yiting Liu is a Creative Technology Director creating technology-powered experiences that bring people together. Based in New York and available globally, she works through Vibescape Corp at the bridge of art, technology, and community, shaping conferences, installations, immersive environments, live visual systems, and public experiences that give people a clearer reason to show up, participate, and remember what happened afterward.

An NYU ITP alum, Yiting was previously Tech Lead (Developer Manager) for the Spatial Computing team across France and the US at Sia Partners, and a creative technologist at Future Colossal, where she designed Fortune 500 brand activations for CAMP (Disney), ESPN, Citibank, and Comcast - reaching 90,000+ visitors across installations and events. She won the Wellness Prize at MIT Reality Hack 2022 for an AR therapy installation, and has been featured by Unity for technical innovation in multiplayer AR.

Today she builds Vibes, an end-to-end live visual system that turns sound into shared atmosphere for rooms, stages, and brand moments. The work spans product strategy, customer-facing experience, real-time creative technology, deployment workflows, and client success - making immersive visuals easier for teams to run in public and easier for audiences to feel immediately. She also exhibited her interactive installation Vibe Altar at the Everywoman Biennial at Pen + Brush. She also builds digital and experiential systems for community moments including the Future of NYC Design Conference and High Society Festival.

She is especially useful when a project needs one lead who can shape the concept, build the system, and make the experience work for real people in public with clearer audience pull, better participation, and stronger follow-through.

Services

Services for teams.

Three ways to bring me into a project: shape the experience, build the interactive layer, or clarify the creative technology strategy behind it so the audience journey, business value, and delivery path are easier to defend.

The through-line is human connection: a clearer concept, stronger audience pull, better participation, sponsor and partner value, and an experience people know how to enter and remember.

For talks, panels, and workshops: speaking has its own page. Project inquiries start here.

Lead outcomes

What changes after we work together

  • A sharper story people can repeat without a long explanation
  • A clearer guest, sponsor, partner, or audience journey
  • The technology strengthens the feeling, memory, shareability, and business case
  • A next-step path for follow-up, partnerships, clients, or community momentum
CommunityService

Experience Design

Technology-powered experiences, activations, conferences, and community events.

What this includes

A clearer concept, audience journey, room strategy, creative direction, and production path for an experience people understand before they arrive and remember after they leave.

Best for

Brands, founders, agencies, and cultural teams building a conference, activation, launch, festival, or community moment.

InteractiveService

Interactive Technology

AI, immersive systems, installations, and creative technology development.

What this includes

A working interactive layer that gives people a reason to stop, gather, play, document, and connect with the idea.

Best for

Teams that need an AI experience, installation, live visual system, XR prototype, or public-facing demo to feel intentional and usable.

StrategicService

Strategic Advisory

Creative technology leadership, innovation strategy, and emerging technology initiatives.

What this includes

Senior creative technology guidance that clarifies what to build, why it matters, how people will engage, and what delivery path is realistic.

Best for

Leaders planning innovation initiatives, creative technology roadmaps, sponsorship-led programs, or emerging technology experiments.

A focused place to start

Creative Technology Concept Review

Bring one activation, AI demo, interactive prototype, or public-facing website. In a 60-minute remote session, we will examine the audience experience, technical choices, and delivery risks. You will leave with a short, prioritized next-step plan.

One concept · One session · Clear next steps

How I work

Sharp read. Clear plan. Public-ready experience.

Experience clarity

Define who the experience is for, why they should care, and what they should feel or do next.

Technology fit

Choose the right interactive or immersive layer only after the audience journey is clear.

Public-ready delivery

Move from concept to a working experience that can hold up for real people, partners, and production constraints.

If you already have a room, launch, brief, or prototype in motion, the next step is a project conversation.

When to reach out

Reach out when the experience needs to bring people closer.

A short conversation can clarify the audience, the feeling, the interaction, and the practical path from idea to public experience.

  • 01A launch, event, demo, or community moment needs a clearer reason for people to show up.
  • 02An interactive layer needs to deepen participation instead of distracting from the experience.
  • 03A room needs stronger conversation, memory, documentation, and follow-up.
  • 04A product or idea needs the right people to experience it in the right setting.
  • 05The concept, people, technology, and energy in the room need one connected lead.

Before we talk

How do you brief a technology-powered experience?

Start with the people and the purpose. These four steps give us a useful starting point.

Inquire about a project
  1. Describe the audience and the moment

    Name the people you want to bring together. Explain what they should feel, do, or remember. Share whether you are planning a launch, conference, installation, or brand activation.

  2. Gather the practical constraints

    Include your target date, location, venue, budget range, and existing team. List any technology, accessibility, or production requirements. Flag what is confirmed and what still needs a decision.

  3. Choose the signs of success

    Identify what you need to learn or measure. Useful signals include attendance, participation, sponsor value, audience feedback, and follow-up conversations. Pick the signals that match your audience and purpose.

  4. Send your brief to Yiting

    Use the contact form to share your idea and constraints with Yiting Liu. Include references or existing materials. A rough brief is enough to start a conversation about scope and fit.

Why design for trust and participation?

According to the 2025 Freeman Trust Report, 95% of attendees reported greater trust in brands after an in-person event. That finding supports starting with the audience relationship. Read the research.

The same study, conducted by The Harris Poll for Freeman, found that 92% of working professionals viewed brands more positively after live events. I use audience feedback to assess how an experience lands. See the study.

Freeman’s research also found that 87% of working professionals visited a brand’s website and wanted to engage online after an event. That is a reason to plan the digital follow-up alongside the room. See the findings.

Freeman’s 2024 attendee research found that discovery led attendance decisions for 87% of respondents. They wanted to encounter new products, solutions, and potential partners. My takeaway: give guests something specific to explore. Read the attendee study.

In that 2024 survey, 80% of respondents ranked in-person events as their most trusted marketing channel. I take that as a reason to make the brand promise tangible and participation simple. See the survey results.
