Researcher

Researching the ideas, technologies and trends shaping the future of music.

My research explores the changing relationship between music, technology, creativity and the creator economy.

I am particularly interested in how emerging technologies and new business models are changing the way music is created, distributed, monetised and taught — and what these changes mean for music creators and the wider industry.

My research combines academic thinking with practical industry experience, allowing me to explore complex questions while keeping the focus firmly on their real-world implications.

Areas of Research

My interests include:

• Music technology and AI
• AI, copyright and music rights
• Creator economics and new revenue models
• Music licensing and micro-licensing
• Music publishing and rights management
• Emerging technologies and creator tools
• The future of music education
• Artist development and sustainable careers
• The changing music industry and creator economy

Research for Industry

I also offer applied research and insight for music-tech companies, education providers and organisations working across the creative industries.

This can include market and industry research, creator insight, trend analysis, educational research, thought leadership and research-led content.

My aim is to turn research into something useful — helping organisations understand what is changing, why it matters and what they should do next.
