When exercised within critical making and play processes, digital tools can create opportunities for new observations and new inquiry surrounding an image’s formal and narrative construction. This thesis explores how digital media can be employed in making and play processes to function as a method of inquiry when examining complex visual content. Historical paintings possessing elements of believable environments serve as a case study, in which the method of digital inquiry is applied via research-oriented design. The result is a non-linear customized methodology that draws upon critical making, critical play, digital craft, experiential learning, and rhizomatic thinking to synthesize new understandings. This document surveys several theories supporting the construction of the research methodology followed by an overview of creative projects that contributed to its conceptual development. The methodology itself consists of a selection of events, which can progress flexibly to fit the researcher’s curiosity. The methodology review is accompanied by samples from a creative project exemplifying each event in the process. 2018-08-15 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1524061715427681 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1524061715427681 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
