The Content Design Lab studies digital content, where many forms of expression, such as CG, video, the web, and digital archives, overlap. It examines methods for generating and expressing diverse digital content, along with the problems of those methods, and pursues the possibilities of digital media expression. At the center of its research is designing comprehensive digital content that accurately captures social needs and meets them. The lab is currently also developing a way to support mental health across generations through VR reminiscence therapy using avatars.
Shoji Sunaga, Professor

Professor Shoji Sunaga's lab studies information processing in human vision, especially color vision, and applies that knowledge to design. It is known that the mechanisms by which people perceive color differ from person to person, and that not everyone necessarily sees the same colors. Based on this color vision diversity, the lab studies color scheme methods that keep information conveyed by color intact regardless of differences in color vision, as well as educational programs for learning about differences in how colors appear.

Professor Mikako Tomotari creates sculpture and studies Shugendo art and the nature of artistic consciousness. She makes sculptural works from actual materials such as wood and iron, and presents them at venues such as Kokugakai exhibitions. She examines the art of Shugendo handed down at Mt. Hiko in Kyushu using methods such as 3D measurement, and carries out restoration and analysis. She also considers how artistic consciousness comes into being, through Central America, Ainu culture, and disability.
