Justin Carr

Hackfort Music Stage Manager

Since 2019, I have been at the heart of Hackfort’s music programming, overseeing the event’s growth from its modest origins to the dynamic experience it is today. What started with a simple Costco table and two turntables has expanded into a full-scale stage, featuring a diverse range of artists from across the United States.

Beyond my work managing the music, I have had the honor of being instrumental in integrating groundbreaking visual art into the Hackfort experience. As the festival has evolved, they’ve helped bring in cutting-edge projection mapping and live, hands-on visual installations that transform the stage into a fully immersive environment. This collaboration between music and visual art has elevated Hackfort into a multi-sensory event that engages attendees on multiple levels.

With a keen eye for detail and a deep passion for both music and visual art, I have played a crucial role in ensuring seamless production, whether it’s coordinating complex set changes, working with projection artists, or managing the integration of live art installations. They are the unseen force that keeps the creative flow of the event intact, ensuring that both artists and audiences have an unforgettable experience.

A true believer in the power of collaboration, I continue to push Hackfort’s boundaries, creating an ever-evolving platform where the worlds of music, visual art, and technology intersect.
