Stephen Matsuba

Stephen Naoyuki Matsuba is co-founder of Alt.Reality Technologies Corporation, a company developing virtual reality and multimedia applications, and SHOC Interactive, a company developing multimedia games and educational applications. In his other life, he is completing his Ph.D in computational linguistics and English literature at York University, Canada. His dissertation's title is "The Play of Reason and Discourse: Intertextual Theory, Cognitive Science, Computational Linguistics, and Identifying Allusions in the Works of Shakespeare." It combines critical literary theory and artificial intelligence to examine and model how critics "discover" allusions in Shakespeare's works. His research interests include Shakespeare, literary theory, computational linguistics, artificial intelligence and cognitive science, computer applications in humanities research and education, VR, and multimedia design. His work has been published in Canadian Humanities Computing, Literary and Linguistic Computing, and Computers and the Humanities. But he is especially proud of the fact that his father performed an autopsy on an alien in an episode of the X-Files.
