Hi, I’m Matt Webb.

- Read my blog, Interconnected. New thoughts weekly+.
About me
I am co-founder and CTO at Inanimate, AI hardware startup.
Previously: MD of two London startup accelerators with R/GA Ventures; co-founder and CEO of pioneering design studio BERG, where we shipped connected products and have work in the New York MoMA; as a consultant, part of the editorial team on an internal publication with the Google AI group, bridging the research and product organisations.
More… I co-wrote Mind Hacks (Amazon/Amazon UK), translated into seven languages. In 2004 I set up the BBC’s first podcast, the first national broadcaster to do so. My name is on seven filed patents (three issued). From time to time I give talks.
Some things I’ve made
My home for occasional weird side projects is Acts Not Facts.
- My AI clock got in the NY Times and 117% funded on Kickstarter. Now manufactured in China. Check out Poem/1.
- An app that always points to the centre of the galaxy (read more). Get Galactic Compass from the App Store.
About the blog
I’ve been writing at Interconnected since February 2000. It’s my public notebook, and I use it to speculate about the future of technology, design and society. That description makes it sound fancier than it is. Here are the top posts of 2025 of 61 published. Topics include AI, new software interfaces, homing pigeons, what Oedipus is about, hats and so on.
