Chris Williams is an artist from New York but also defines himself as a multi-maker, which he defines as a combination of being both multifaceted and a maker. He has a background in biology, and a lot of his work includes themes of life and environment. 

Chris Williams talks about his time in Texas, working for a woman who used robotics to save lives after the tsunami in Fukushima, as well as the time he spent in Turkey, which included being in the midst of protest. In Pittsburgh, he has worked on a wooden audio game for the visually impaired ("Coral"), an installation in Lawrenceville that mimics a pier and uses light patterns that interact and work with the environment ("Ghost Pier"), and a simulation of the experience of listening to an 8-9 hour brass music performance in Turkey ("Pittonkatonk"). He also engages in a conversation about the Black Lives Matter movement.
