My teaching at the Basel Academy of Music focuses to a great extend on research methodology. In my course Artistic and scientific research methods, I deal with a number of questions that I find crucial to a thorough research approach in the given context: how can my artistic practice become an epistemological tool, not just the final product of philological research? In what way do I share my findings and how do I critically reflect my own limited perspectives? And in what way can my discoveries be transformed into material for artistic endeavors?
I usually practice team-teaching to make up for my blind spots and as a means for securing a high level of teaching. This also applies to a second course, Interdisciplinary Acts, that connects with other diciplines. In the recent years, those have been media science, philosophy, theater studies and fine arts like the Schaulager Basel.
At the Department for Musicology (University of Basel) I have been teaching since 2020 a course on music history, focussing mainly on the post-WW II era in Germany until today.
