Job description

My research focuses on radio art, radio genres, and experimental audio forms. I am particularly interested in the relationship between documentary and fiction in radio production, as well as in the contemporary transformations of radio aesthetics and forms. I teach courses on artistic radio documentary, media in artistic communication, audio storytelling, and audio genres.

Interests

She has led research projects funded by the Polish National Science Centre (NCN) and the University of Łódź on experimental audio forms and radio art. She completed a research fellowship at the London College of Communication (University of the Arts London) and conducted archival research and scholarly consultations at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., the Polish Radio Archives, and during international events devoted to radio art. Her research specializes in radio art, radio genres, and contemporary sound culture. Her interests include radio theory and genre studies, experimental audio forms, documentary practices in radio art, and the relationships between sound, media, and culture.
