Latest Progress

Hey,

Sorry it's taken me so long to write! Things have been a bit hectic.  Following on from the SEMPRE conference in October, the review of the conference including my paper is now available at http://www.sempre.org.uk/resources/review_conf_23Oct09.pdf.

My PhD is slowly progressing, but I do have a draft of my structure for my literature review and a hypothesis to test so that's good news!

Looking forward to the Empirical Musicology conference at Leeds on 25th and 26th March http://www.leeds.ac.uk/music/conferences/empirical10/.  Can't wait to hear Prof. Eric Clarke talk as I'm referring to his publication Ways of Listening in my PhD.  Hopefully I'll also meet up with a couple of students who I did my MA with at Sheffield too.


Bye for now.

I have recently completed my PhD titled 'Exploring the presence, experience and influence of background music in gambling situations' at The University of Sheffield. My PhD research was supervised by Prof. Nicola Dibben and Dr. Richard Rowe. Prior to that I gained an MA in Psychology of Music at The University of Sheffield (2009) and completed my first degree in Music at the University of Leeds (2005). I conduct research within the fields of psychology of music and gambling studies.
