matt danzico. who what when where why how

Hi, I'm Matt.

Part journalist and part video producer, I am a reporter with a taste for interactive web who focuses on science and technology. What does that mean exactly? Well, it means that I am a nerd. But it also means I fully understand both broadcast and digital media. I know how to fuse the two together to help usher in the next generation of content creation on television and online.

I started in a foreign bureau for one of the world’s largest newspapers, The Tokyo Shimbun. Then in the fall of 2007, I founded Around America in 2.0, an experimental video series in which I traveled around the continental U.S. solely relying on strangers on social networks for food, transportation, and housing in an effort to explore trust and connectivity online.

Since 2007, I've participated in a number of projects and worked as an editor of AliveInBaghdad.org, the co-founder of TabsOnObama.org, a staff video producer for Discovery Channel, and a freelance journalist and media consultant. Today I work as an interactive journalist for the BBC.

When I'm not working, I think about science, technology, traveling, bicycles, dogs, and baseball--not necessarily in that order.

Actually, I take that back. Yes, in that order.
