Description of activity
I am a Doctor of Social Sciences, interested in the ways music has been used in different (mainly historical) audiovisual cultural products and contexts, as well as on users of music and sound technologies. I have recently studied the history of music and sound in commercial background music products, and in films for advertising, educational and propaganda purposes, as well as the music-related everyday practices in Finland.
