Interview with Jamie Kosoy, Founder and Head of Technology at Arbitrary
Arbitrary isn’t exactly a digital creative agency or a production shop. It’s not quite a studio or an R&D Lab, either. Arbitrary is the best of all of these things. Arbitrary brings together teams of talented groups and individuals to work on experiential, lovely, forward-thinking stuff of all sorts.
Arbitrary is whatever it needs to be to make inspired digital creations for and with great people.
