Can it provide access to alternative data sources? And how should these be analyised?
Or are they purely, rather abstracted, contextualisations? There to provide a 'feeling' of the place to illustrate something more, but without being able to directly signify it??
Below is a 9 minute recording of a walk through part of my research site: East Street Market in Southwark, South London. Its a lovely thing for me to listen to. It is evocative of so much; diversity, sociality, the space and place of the area, the history and of course, my own small role in it. But what does it do for the person removed? Does it provide an image? Is it a strong message of the place?
Ultimately I want to know if is sound recording works... as a piece of data itself.
Thoughts?
(Note: Enjoy my stupid voice at the beginning forgetting where the market comes out!)
