He was the co-founder and first director of the master’s program in Sound Studies at the Berlin University of the Arts, where he was also a visiting professor in sound anthropology and sound ecology. Holger Schulze’s research areas include the cultural history of the senses, sound in pop culture, and the anthropology of media. Recent key publications include Sonic Fiction (Bloomsbury 2020), Sound Works (Bloomsbury 2019), and The Sonic Persona (Bloomsbury 2018). His most recent book publication in German is Ubiquitäre Literatur: Eine Partikelpoetik (Ubiquitous Literature: A Particle Poetics; Matthes & Seitz 2020), which contains a poetics of the shortest texts on social media platforms and effectively utilizes concepts and interpretative frameworks from sound studies.
