Department of Management, Society and Communication
I have researched and taught subjects related to the use of digital and social media since 1999. My interest has been to study the interplay between platform affordances, individual motivation and social behaviour in relation to for instance mourning, politics and transmedial world fandom, and to contribute to the development of the field of social media studies in Denmark. My current interests include to better understand the impact of AI and data on mourning practices and visual storytelling, and to develop a typology of serial storytelling, and to develop a typology of serial storytelling formats on social media.
