creative enabler

As a creative enabler, I work at the intersection of technical production and artistic collaboration — helping artists and organizations bring ambitious projects to life. My background spans touring live sound, on-set film production, sound design and composition, gallery spaces, large-scale installation, and experimental theater — with a focus on adaptability, care, and creative problem-solving. Whether managing production logistics, engineering immersive soundscapes, or supporting community-driven festivals through organizations like the Portland Institute for Contemporary Art and Friends of Noise, I bring a grounded, artist-first approach to every project I work on.

"I have been a client of Mat Larimer for the past 3 years and I've enjoyed working with him immensely. His skills as an audio engineer for live events is only matched by his level of courtesy and compassion. He is versed in a wide assortment of gear applications and is adept at problem solving."
— Andre Middleton | Executive Director of Friends of Noise
