I am having some problems coming up with an idea to pursue throughout this paper, the topics are so varied and broad that I just don’t know where to start.
I would like to do something which allows me to research gaming, interaction design or music video production because these are the topics which interest me the most.
Making a game (or game-like piece) is probably the most attractive medium for me, and I have always been interested in creating a game which expands upon the usual idea of a game, or expands to an audience wider than the typical gamer.
Creating a physical interaction piece interests me because it explores he trend toward expanding computers beyond the traditional keyboard + mouse + screen set-up, however, I am wary that the quality of my work would suffer from creating a physical object.
Creating a music video would allow me to develop my video production skills and would result in an accessible portfolio piece. However, simply making a music video runs the risk of the project becoming too one dimensional, and I would have to bring someone else in to create the music as my skills in that area aren’t up to scratch.
Some sort of combination between a physical interaction piece and a game-like program could be an interesting route to take, but determining a narrower topic to explore is difficult at this stage.
