Thesis about media design and touchdesigner

Hey there,
I wrote this replying to another topic,
but it might be more visible in a dedicated post!

I am currently based in the Netherlands, Amsterdam, working as a media designer (mostly with touchdesigner, cinema4d, after effects) and I am doing some research about new approaches and trends in media design, as in some way in still involved in academy and considering in apply for pHd position.

The idea is to have a look at future perspectives

  • spatial augmented reality and mapping:
  • evolution of techniques and tools (touchdesigner, realtime, dynamic mapping etc)
  • interesections with HCI (gamification, interfaces, UX)
  • impact on new media theories, as cultural software (lev manovich)
  • news: google tango, kinect v2 etc… spatial depth data

Trying to figure how to draw up a thesis/ article about this,
with touchdesigner as one of the main characters in it

If you anyone has any suggestions it would be awesome to discuss about it.

I dont have a phd so I’m not super familiar with phd papers, but what more specifically are you looking to research and examine?

Creation processes/techniques/workflows? Social trends/perception/use? Artistic/technical capabilities/boundaries? etc etc
