WORKSHOPS

Aisha Durham develops and facilitates workshops about media literacy and qualitative research methods for academic institutions and community organizations.

RESEARCH METHODS WORKSHOP

Poetic Transcription

As a method of ethnographic inquiry and representation strategy, poetic transcription can open interpretive space to deepen understanding and bridge experience using embodied, emotive and evocative language that encourages full sensory engagement. The workshop facilitator will provide an overview of the approach adapted in performance ethnography, and work with participants who will conduct brief interviews, analyze transcripts to excavate imaginative possibilities, and compose and perform poetic, critically-reflexive texts.  No background in performance or ethnography is required.
