Research and Interests

In engineering: model validation/prediction with collaborative data, mixed integer linear programing, non-linear optimization, robust control.

In film studies: psychological perspective, viewing plane and its boundries, the mise en scène of POV shots, and the "male" gaze.

In digital media studies: intellectual property, non-linear narrative, feedback systems in installations, cybernetics, and hybrid media.
