I am interested in broad area of Human-Computer Interaction, but have been especially focused on interactions between human and the real world through computers, their input modalities, and their development methods. My current focus is on designing tools for programming interactive media content.

In my future vision, people with the diverse background can collaborate with others and express their creativity within an integrated design environment - a set of { physical | graphical | textual } user interfaces that provide creativity support for not only conventional programming but also data collection, management, and manipulation.
