I am pleased. After many years of work, "Ethnomethodology and Ethnography" was published today as a special issue of the journal Qualitative Research.
Many thanks to the editor-in-chief Kate Moles and my co-guest editors Alex Dennis, Clemens Eisenmann and Yaël Kreplak. It really was a productive collaboration. And many thanks to all the authors of the special issue. 😃
Reconsidering foundational relationships between #ethnography and #ethnomethodology and #conversation analysis – an introduction (by Eisenmann, Meier zu Verl, Kreplak & Dennis)
#SocialMedia#DigitalPlatforms#Algorithms#Ethnomethodology#Personalization: "To conclude, it is fair to say that researching digital platforms pose new challenges compared to most other media forms because of their distinct ontology. Algorithms cannot be the main object of platform studies because of their hyper-modular, invisible, and inextricable nature. This, in addition to platforms’ deep embedding in our everyday lives, calls for novel theories and innovative research methods."
I think it makes sense to call today the "official" start date of one of my two research leave projects around the notion of "Living and Working in Space", and I'm hoping to document it at least partly in the form of threads on here...so, here goes, follow this for more (imminent) detail!
