About
In my PhD project, I explore the integration of artificial intelligence within the realm of art music. Following composers, performers, and developers in their daily work, I investigate what is at stake when new digital technology becomes integrated into musical practice and expertise. My project draws both on French pragmatic sociology theory and evaluation studies, as well as music mediation theories.
I hold a Master's Degree in Gender Studies from the Université Paris VIII, where I studied gender dynamics and the understanding of artistic talent in the field of higher jazz music education across France and Norway. I also have a background as a journalist, author, and music critic.
