Dr. Andy Quitmeyer designs new ways to interact with the natural world. Quitmeyer has worked with large organizations like Cartoon Network, IDEO, and the Smithsonian, taught as a tenure-track professor, and even had his research turned into a (silly) television series called “Hacking the Wild.” distributed by Discovery.
He spends most of his time volunteering with smaller organizations and communities, and recently founded the field-station/makerspace, Digital Naturalism Laboratories. In the rainforest of Gamboa, Panama, Dinalab blends biological fieldwork and technological crafting with a community of local and international scientists, artists and engineers.
