Hi Thomas, Apologies for chiming in late on this one. You might want to consider conducting your PhD at Birmingham Conservatoire in the UK.
http://www.conservatoire.bcu.ac.uk/research/centre-for-composition-and-performance-using-technology We have an established research centre, which has run the Integra project (www.integralive.org) since its inception, and has secured funding a second project phase. Our research specialisms are mainly focused on live interaction in performance. Being a Conservatoire, there is a diverse range of talented instrumental performers to collaborate with. We have strong links with a number of other research centres including the Visualisation Research Unit (http://www.biad.uce.ac.uk/vru/index.php) at BIAD, so if you were interested in performance gesture analysis through advanced motion capture, there are facilities available for that.
