Major research activity
Industrial needs thus far have made tremendous progress in technology and material exploration, and accordingly all sorts of systems and organizations have further developed. Needless to say, our daily lifestyle today implements such technological advancements. However, civilization based on too much material rationalism often yields social problems.
Rather than pursuing higher levels of technology, therefore, I am interested in realizing so-called "experiences" that ordinary people dream of, such as equipment that existed only in the SF world or comics in the past - mobile phones, Wii remote controllers and TV sets hanging on the wall used to be wildest dreams but are now available in real life.
Currently I am engaged in the following research areas concerning "interaction" and "entertaining fields."
1) Contents Creation and Design
2) Music Informatics (cf. http://www.crestmuse.jp/index-e.html)
3) Psychological Measurement
