Panelist on the topic ‘KI und Algorithmen als ethische Herausforderungen für eine mediatisierte Gesellschaft’ at the Symposium Medienethik at FH St. Pölten.

I am very happy that our CHIIR paper Break the Loop: Gender Imbalance in Music Recommenders with Andrés Ferraro and Xavier Serra received a lot of media attention. It will take a while until I can integrate all the media articles (that I am aware of) in my website.

I had the honor being a guest at the Austrian radio program ‘‘Mahlzeit Burgenland’’. We talked about music recommenders, Austrian food, saxophones, the current Covid-19 situation, and many other things.

My interview for LIWEST Kundenmagazin, Ausgabe Juli 2020 ([pdf] [e-paper]) was recorded. A 10 minutes cut of this interview is now online as a video at dorf tv. Your browser does not support the video tag.

I gave an interview for the cover story of LIWEST Kundenmagazin (Ausgabe Juli 2020). We talked about my research on music recommender systems, but also about music streaming in general. And some private remarks ;-)

I am nominated as one of 11 top women in technology & innovation in the magazine Die Burgenlandänderin. The ‘‘winner’’ is determined via voting until 9 August 2020. So, please vote now – and choose wisely ;-)

There is a one-page feature about me and my recent project in the magazine Burgenland Mitte. Here is a link to the online version of the article. pdf file of the article in Burgenland Mitte.

I’ve written a portrait about myself for the The Female Scientist with some personal infos about my decision to work in science and some experience with respect to being a women in science.

Next week, Ö1 Radiokolleg (by the Austrian public broadcaster ORF) devotes to the topic of music and algorithms, and their impact on the music industry. The program is called Maschinenmusik.

It’s great to see our scientific results being communicated to the public. Our results were well received on the media. And here we go, the list of articles on the media:

Last week appeared my first blog in the online-version of the newspaper DER STANDARD. The article is about hit prediction.

The Austrian newspaper DER STANDARD reported on my Elise Richter FWF project Fine-grained culture-aware music recommender systems. Here is the link to the article (in German).

I was interviewed for Noisey Austria (an online youth magazine) on music and artificial intelligence (in German): https://noisey.vice.com/alps/article/ywqpqy/roboter-statt-popstars-was-bedeutet-kunstliche-intelligenz-fur-die-musikwelt
