Project: "Modifying Soywax for Encaustic Painting and Comparing it to
Traditional Encaustic Painting Waxes"
This project experiments with soywax as a replacement for more traditional
waxes used in encaustic painting. The intention is to make
large-scale soywax paintings on stretched canvas and compare these with both
the physical stability and the conceptual, visual aspects of works made with
beeswax and petroleum-based microcrystalline wax. This project will explore
soywax as a cost-effective, safe, and biorenewable resource that could be
used to make creative and archival works of art.

Christopher Hopkins, Assistant Professor, Music
Project: "Mapping Sound to 3-D Virtual Materials: A Real-time Touch
Sensitive Instrument for Virtual Engineering and Electroacoustic
Music"
Both Virtual Engineering and Electroacoustic Music Composition use
human-computer interaction for design, decision-making, and presentation.
Current research in virutal engineering includes the use of haptic devices
to add a sense of touch to the interaction with virtual objects. Techniques
of sound synthesis as developed from electroacoustic music have potential to
be coordinated with virtual reality for mapping graphics and haptics to
sound.
