Beyond her PhD study on metaphorical dimensions of musical sound, her research explores relationships between music and society, and music and architecture. In 2014, she initiated a collaborative project at Griffith University bringing together architects and musicians to better understand how the underlying qualitative principles of sound and sound making could be incorporated into architectural design and the experience of built spaces. Jocelyn engages in arts advocacy with a particular interest in chamber music, experimental music, and arts collaborations.
