Description
Summary:This dataset is provided by Dr. Kate Moles from the Cardiff School of Social Sciences, Cardiff University and concerns interviews on the move. Interviews were conducted with visitors to Phoenix Park in Dublin, as part of an ethnography of the place. The interviews that were part of the project ranged from the quite traditional, where the researcher and participant sat and talked, to interactions that were more spontaneous and (in many ways) less structured (in terms of the time, place and topics). Included in the exemplar is an extended extract drawn from an interview conducted with a man in his sixties sitting on a bench in the park. In her study, Kate was interested in examining the construction and co-production of narratives of (collective and personal) memory and heritage within interactional encounters, and the roles that place held within these interactions. The exemplar considers how methods on the move, and methods that talk about the place they occur in, are part of the co-productive relationship between interviewer and participant; how place is framed in and by the interactions, and how meaning-making is always embedded in the interactions that occur. It will be of most interest to researchers conducting mobile methods and those interested in heritage and (collective) memory, as a product of interactions.
