As stated below I propose to investigate into the influence of texture and thus the sense of touch in screen design. I want to undestand whether projecting onto a specific material can add to the 'Information Bandwidth' of the experience and emerce the audience in the architecture of an area.

In a sense it is to see if digital information can become physical, and to do this I may have to look at how initailly physical information becomes digital. It will be interesting to see how the texture or material of a projection space adds to the media's aesthetic and maybe auditory perception.

Above are just some of the textures that could be projected onto, there will be many more both in outside and inside areas. At the moment my main route of investigation will be to research artists that project onto both different textures and use customized screens, as these can also emerse and infulence the viewing experience for the audience.
