Broad Data
Under the aegis of what we term 'broad data ethnography', we outline four principles for the standardized collection, processing, and analysis of ethnographip data, particularly fieldnotes: compilability, compatibility , counting , and computability . As we demonstrate via examples from an interdisciplinary study at a Danish politics festival: compilability denotes the need for a shared data structure; compatibility refers to the demand for high …
Fixing Fieldnotes
Ethnographic fieldnotes can contain richer and more thorough descriptions of social phenomena compared to other data sources. Their open-ended and flexible character makes them especially useful in explorative research. However, fieldnotes are typically highly unstructured and personalized by individual researchers, which make them harder to use as a method for data collection in collaborative and mixed methods research. More precisely, the unstr…
Digital dependence
As the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns forced populations across the world to become completely dependent on digital devices for working, studying, and socializing, there has been no shortage of published studies about the possible negative effects of the increased use of digital devices during this exceptional period. In seeking to empirically address how the concern with digital dependency has been experienced during the pandemic, we present findin…
A view from anthropology
If you are an anthropologist wanting to use digital methods or programming as part of your research, where do you start? In this commentary, we discuss three ways in which anthropologists can use computational tools to enhance, support, and complement ethnographic methods. By presenting our reflections, we hope to contribute to the stirring conversations about the potential future role(s) of (social) data science vis-a-vis anthropology and ethnog…
