He is the Founding Director of the Institute for Immersive Designs, Experiences, Applications, and Stories (Institute for IDEAS[3]) at American University and the Associate Director of the Center for Environmental Filmmaking.[4] He is also an Adjunct Assistant Professor at the Department of Emergency Medicine at George Washington University.

As a filmmaker, Krzysztof produced a Canadian feature Waiting for Summer and directed a number of short films.[1] He is also a writer/director/producer of the volumetric transmedia project Vera, where volumetric miniature,[5] interactive volumetric virtual reality theater The Meeting, traditional film entitled Dill Pickle,[6] and Vera:360[7] film are used as a media of adaptation for Katherine Mansfield's short story. Krzysztof also wrote and produced three tabletop volumetric stories for children: Plato, the Cave Pebble,[8] Greeny, the Brave Oak Leaf,[9] and The Candle and the Lamp,[10] based on his children books.[11]

Krzysztof's research involves designing volumetric capture equipment,[12] telemedicine technologies, persuasive virtual and augmented reality, games for change, human-computer interaction,[13] and interactive narrative and montage techniques for virtual (VR), augmented (AR),[14] and mixed(MR) reality.[15][16] Krzysztof's research and artistic practice is supported by National Science Foundation, Canada Media Fund, and other federal and private funding sources.
