Richard Coates, Engineering Director, BYTE/DEPT®.
A fan of entertainment, and an even bigger fan of the spotlight, Richard has been entranced by computers’ capacity to communicate with us since playing games on his family’s Atari ST.
After trying his hand at standup comedy and music, Richard found that he was most adept at entertaining from behind the scenes, and behind a completely different type of keyboard.
He now works at BYTE/DEPT®, where he works on combining traditional media with technology to create immersive experiences for clients such as Twitch, Meta and Netflix.
