Hello
I'm a media technology student from Finland. I will graduate in 2012/2013. I have been thinking about my thesis, and thought of writing about video game music (production). It would probably be a qualitative research ie. in-depth interviews with a handful of people rather than polling a bunch of people (quantitative research).
I did some interviews during the Distant Worlds II concert in Sweden. I think I would be able to pull this off.
The thesis itself should be a bit on the technical side, as opposed to cultural impact etc. Basically I would go out and interview important people in the process of video game music development. How it is done, where, when. Everything. I haven't figured out the specifics yet. Going to Japan is also an option, if I manage to get in contact with the right people.
What are your thoughts? I wish to hear anything you have to say. Has this been done before? If you think this is a waste of time or not conceivable, do tell me. But that will not affect me in any way anyhow, so explain your thoughts as thoroughly as possible.
Thank you,
Nikolas
