Research explores the boundaries between the virtual and the physical world. It is concerned with the development of custom solutions (electronics hardware and software), primarily for the development of technology-based interactive art works, using open source and open platform resources in their development.
Hosale is also invested in a parallel theoretical practice that has been focused on world making, a concept attempting to construct immersive realties that express an essence of experience that reveal the ontology of philosophical propositions.
Department of Computational Arts, AMPD
Research interests are within the fields of visually guided autonomous robots and virtual reality; work on sensing strategies for AQUA, the development of tools and techniques to support crime scene investigation; and the understanding of the perception of self-motion and orientation in unusual environments including microgravity.
Professor at Computer Science and Engineering at Lassonde School of Engineering;
Member of the Centre for Vision Research at York University.
Research addresses challenges in the efficient organization, management and analysis of media-rich datasets, while developing more natural and intuitive modes for associated human-computer and computer-mediated interaction. This work finds application in multimedia search and summarization, knowledge-assisted visualization, immersive computing and virtual/mixed realities.

Research activities reside at the intersection of photography, graphic design and digital media.
Department of Computational Arts, AMPD,
Co-principal investigator for the Mobile Digital Commons Network (MDCN),
Founding member of Hexagram: Institute for Research and Creation in Media Arts and Technologies.
Research aims to connect scientific and artistic approaches to the environment with respect to sound and physical space. Projects involving bodies and stethoscopes, nanotechnology, site-specific sound installations, collective (multi-media) improvisations, physical computing, environmental sensing, and data systems have been completed. Most recent research interests include creative use of environmental databases to create aesthetic, mediated, experiences of natural phenomenon, stemming from a long interest in the history and poetics of Aeolian devices.

Research-creation projects explore sound and movement-centred performances in distributed, technologically-mediated contexts. Drawing on backgrounds in electroacoustic and computer music, performance, Deep Listening, sonic perception, mathematics and media arts, the work integrates improvisation and collective performance with machine agents, interactive systems and experiences of telepresence.
Cross-Appointed between Departments of Computational Arts and Music, AMPD
Full Member of Graduate Program in Theatre & Performance Studies, AMPD
Founding director of the DisPerSion (DIStributed PERformance and Sensorial immersION) Lab
Assistant Editor, Computer Music Journal (MIT Press)
Research-creation is founded upon a trans-disciplinary academic training in interactive art, music, virtual reality, mathematics and philosophy; practice incorporates art production and software engineering for audio-visual, interactive, and immersive mixed reality media.
