Enjoyed talking about brands in Indian bazaars with sociologist Maitrayee Deka. And the suggestion that there is something unique about brands in the informal economy: an "aesthetic of excess". Webinar hosted by the @cclab_iimu

It is such an individual and unique experience to conduct #ethnography, that there is very little one can teach. To explore what 'doing' ethnography means, we read Clifford Geertz seminal text "Deep Play" to reflect upon the variety of experiences an ethnographer goes through.
We are thrilled to announce that 7 students from @IIM_Udaipur are joining us as student-researchers for the Stage 2. For this stage, we will be conducting #ethnographies (#virtually) over the next several months! #Anthropology #remoteresearch #qualitativereserch #India #CCLab
Hey digi-travelers! This week we will be traveling to southern India, through the beautiful towns of Kannur, Anakapalli, and Visakhapatnam. We are excited to learn about the diverse ways in which our participants are interacting with the digital!
"It has already been downloaded by more than 1,000 children from different schools across Maharashtra, Gujarat, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh." #internet #education #India #accessibility #digirural #CCLab thehindu.com/news/national/…
The #paricipant and #researcher, come from such different #lifeworlds, but for those 2 hours - find a shared space to exchange their experiences, goals, aspirations etc. There is something quite magical about that experience which can't seem to replicate in #remoteresearch!
But the one thing we cant seem to ignore is the lack of human touch in such settings - a shared moment that just developed since we shared the same physical space. #reflections #remoteresearch #digitalmediums #qualitativeresearch #Digirural #CCLab
We have been conducting virtual interviews - E-meeting people through #Zoom across the country! Its definitely allowed us access to towns and #villages that would have otherwise been so hard to reach making this research more #inclusive and #diverse!
“Because of the pandemic, smaller cities are rising in terms of new members or activity on the app,” said Marine Ravinet, Head of Trends at Happn." #datingapps #India #newnormal #insights #socialdynamics #digitalbehaviour #Digirural #CCLab indianexpress.com/article/india/…
