ABOUT
Hello, my name is Henry Finn and I am an Artist and Inventor who builds AI-native entertainment universes and the technology companies around them.
I grew up addicted to comic books, movies, anime, games... all things that I was told would ruin my life and instead became my everything. Add an insatiable curiosity to play with the latest technologies (I was early to VR, AR, AI and Blockchain) and that's pretty much my day job.
I build companies that further humanity through Art & Entertainment.
All day, every day I think deeply (as I can) about the meaning of the human condition, the purpose of technology, and how those two things collide at the intersection of IP & Storytelling! It's not just my passion it is my life purpose to push the boundaries of Art in a way that allows for the greatest amount of people to benefit.
I don't just want to make content. I want to build worlds, platforms, communities, multi-reality games, and AI-powered experiences that turn IP into living ecosystems.
I also grew up working in non-profits since high school and have a strong sense of connection to the people, and my core underlying focus is on improving the lives of the people around me.
I don't just want to change how people entertain themselves, but how they improve themselves through the power of storytelling and technology.
My thesis is that the next major entertainment franchises will be built differently.
They won't just be films, comics, or games. They'll be AI-native worlds with characters, communities, collectibles, interactive stories, and ownership layers from day one.
Thanks for listening!
