Thomas van de Moosdijk

Eindhoven University of
Technology (Netherlands)

As a designer, Thomas van de Moosdijk find himself very much interested in the way we tangibly interact with technology. As this is a very broad field, He is interested in a specific part of tangible interaction: the influence of tangible interaction on creativity; focused on music creation. For a few years, He has been making music electronically on his laptop, but he founds that turning virtual knobs with a mouse hampered his creativity. Therefore, he would like to use both hands and think physically. For instance, he has been working on a prototype of a midi controller which has all of the knobs of a specific virtual instrument, which are mapped to their virtual counterparts. By doing this, he is interested in what way having one knob with one corresponding function influences someone’s ability to be creative (to try out a lot of different, unique and valuable options).
