My research is based in the interdisciplinary field between literature and music. I am particularly interested in intermedial connections between art forms. In the PhD thesis "Literature Imagining Music", I analysed what fiction imagines about Western music as an art form and a cultural practice. Using a corpus of 20 novels published between 1990 and 2010, I worked methodologically between close comparative readings and digital 'distant reading' (Text mining). The thesis has a postcritical and phenomenological framework and is based within the interdisciplinary and intermedial research field of Word and Music Studies. My contribution to the field consist primarily in the larger empirical and analytical scope along with an explicit dialogue with Cultural Musicology.

I am currently developing the research project "Rural Rhythms: A Song History of Danish Agriculture" to investigate farm work as topos and rhythm in Danish communal singing. This project combines the practice of intermedial analysis with my experience from the agrobusiness.
