Practice-led research is often used in art, design, and creativity research. It is one type of action research (research through design) which involves both understanding the process of design itself and developing new design actions, artifacts or methods (Sheila Pontis, 2010). In the past 10 years, we designed a tool for studying the effect of transmedia, explored the relationship between body movement and distorted pattern, and created a workflow that encourages users moving their body to see and make. I would like to show how we iterate through practice by sharing our works as an example of practice-led research.
