Ethnography at the edge of the future

Abstract

This is an interview to Sarah Pink, a British researcher based in Australia. Her research combines theoretical and methodological scholarship with applied practice. She works across themes including digital media, energy, consumption, everyday life, sustainability, activism, tacit and sensory ways of knowing, safety and health and the construction industry. She researches across urban, domestic and workplace environments. Her work is often developed through interdisciplinary collaborations across design, engineering and arts disciplines. In this interview, she thinks about the notions of repetition, time and future that can be found in her research methodologies.
