Listening to music on the move has become an integral part of many people's daily lives, accompanying various activities such as commuting and exercise. Mia Kuch has conducted three studies on this listening activity to provide a systematic, quantitative analysis of its functions and effects. The results show that mobile music listening can alter the listener's subjective experience in multiple, even unintended ways, ranging from mere distraction to affect regulation and multisensory experiences. This reveals a diversity of practices and points to different mechanisms of action involving the interplay of context, personal needs and music.
Mia Kuch holds a PhD from the University of Music Freiburg (Systematic Musicology, Music Psychology).
