About Ryan McKenna

I’m a technologist, entrepreneur, and music producer creating at the intersection of sound, software, and systems. I founded the electronic act Exstellius™ and lead New Entity Operations Inc., where I’ve spent years designing local-first AI infrastructure that empowers people with privacy, speed, and control.

My mission is twofold: to create original big-room melodic trance that moves audiences, and to engineer the systems that make those performances possible. Every show connects art and computation through blending live lighting, visuals, and sound driven by purpose-built networks and tools.

I’ve worked hands-on across the entire stack, from GPU drivers and orchestration layers to the creative interfaces that reach the crowd. I build frameworks, then perform inside them. This dual path is where I’m most at home.
