Dissertation
While studying at Rose Bruford I chose to take a variety of rolls across the design/technical spectrum rather than focusing on one side.
My Dissertation was about the relationship between Theatre & Religion and involved an experiment to find out how people responded to a service of worship when presented under different design approaches.
