Creative Practice Ethnographies

Creative Practice Ethnographies examines how the collaboration between creative practice and ethnography enables scholars and practitioners to hone research strategies and methods within contemporary contexts. The authors use three heuristics—techniques, translations, and transmissions—to illustrate how this interdisciplinary strategy operates. Creative Practice Ethnographies focuses on the intersection of creative practice and ethnography and offers new ways to think about the methods, practice, and promise of research in contemporary interdisciplinary contexts. How does creative practice inform new ways of doing ethnography and vice versa? What new forms of expression and engagement are made possible as a result of these creative synergies? By addressing these questions, the authors highlight the important roles that ethnography and creative practice play in socially impactful research. This book is aimed at interdisciplinary researchers, scholars, and students of art, design, sociology, anthropology, games, media, education, and cultural studies.
