“…In her study, Christine Neubert asks questions about everyday knowledge of architecture. By comparing five different work places visited between 2013 and 2015 (an art museum, a factory hall, an art studio, a library, and a laboratory), she systematizes architectural experience in everyday life (Neubert 2018). Ronja Trischler is interested in sociotechnical cooperation in visual, digital post-production for film and television.…”

We analyze the relations between ethnographic data and theory through an examination of materiality in research practices, arguing that data production is a form of material theorizing. This entails reviewing and (re-)applying practice-theoretical discussions on materiality to questions of ethnography, and moving from understanding theory primarily as ideas to observing theorizing in all steps of research practice. We introduce “pocketing” as a heuristic concept to analyze how and when ethnographic data materializes: the concept defines data’s materiality relationally, through the affective and temporal dimensions of practice. It is discussed using two examples: in a study on everyday architectural experience where ethnographic data materialized as bodies affected by architecture; and in a study on digital cooperation where research data’s materialization was distributed over time according to the use of a company database. By conceptualizing data’s materiality as practice-bound, “pocketing” facilitates understanding the links between data and theory in ethnographic data production.
