Joke Hermes

Joke Hermes is professor of practice-based research at Inholland UAS and has a small appointment at the University of Amsterdam’s Media Studies department. The central theme in her work is cultural citizenship: the ways in which popular culture allows us to reflect on what worries us, what we hope for, fear or are critical of. As audience researcher she sees an urgent need to start listening with far more care, attention and analytical prowess.
