“…In combination with research through design (Frayling, ), this study makes use of a constructivist philosophy (Creswell, ), narrative ethnography (Czarniawska, ) and autoethnographic writing (Ellis, Adams, & Bochner, ; Livholts, , ). Research through design generates new knowledge through the practice of making and designing artefacts, models and prototypes (Frayling, ).…”

“…An epistemological gain can be achieved through the methodological process of autoethnography because it assists in documenting moments from the creative and innovative process as they occur in and through the designer (Munro, ). Livholts (, ) makes use of memory work as an autoethnographic strategy that allows the researcher to use memories in written and visual forms to generate data and to use them as a starting point for reflection and new knowledge. Memory work can be used as a collective, dual or individual strategy involving different steps of working with text and images.…”

“…In this study, we develop the methodological approach that underpins the production novella. It borrows inspiration from Czarniawska's () narrative ethnography of shadowing for doing fieldwork in contemporary societies and Livholts' (, ) auto‐ethnographic narrative strategy of working with memories as a researcher‐based method to generate data from personal experience. Czarniawska () argues that fieldwork in late‐modern societies is not static but changing and that the field is to be regarded as a practice where accounts are produced.…”

Reinventing tradition: Exploring the creation of new meaning through innovations involving craft‐based design

Many studies in the field of innovation focus on novelty and technology, but recent literature and contemporary design practices have proposed an alternative view. Innovation has instead been suggested to bring about new meanings, often driven by design, and lately the role of tradition has been highlighted as a source of innovation rather than an obstacle. However, research has thus far not explained how tradition is actually used in innovation practice. By exploring design elements from craft‐based design practice, the overall aim of this study is to identify and explore how craft‐based design leads to new meaning and Innovation Through Tradition (ITT). To gain further insights into craft‐based design for ITT, the Research Through Design method in combination with narrative writing was used, investigating innovation from inside design practice. The empirical design work highlights the innovation potential when craft‐based design and production processes deliberately use tradition, not only by embracing the value of tradition itself, but also by creating new meaning through its unexpected combination with novel components. Finally, a visualization of key elements that can be reinvented is outlined to highlight tensions between different design elements that have the potential to produce new and valuable product meanings.

“…Through this lag of understanding I elaborate with "the cynic" and the "tragic" as characters of agency in my novella. Characters are created through the self as a shaky character (compare Stanley, 1995), by writing in the third person, which was initially inspired by the memory work method (Livholts, 2015b), but developed further inspired by fiction. My reading of Gilman's (1892Gilman's ( /1989) story is that patriarchal control and physiological distress are created by sceneries where colour and spatiality are central.…”

The subject of this paper is social-scientific methodology collective memory-work and its relevance for psychological inquiry. The aim is to present it through elaboration of its historical and theoretical foundations and assumptions, as well as practical guidance for research. From the original idea until current literature, chosen aspects of this methodology are considered within certain theoretical frameworks and debates, with accompanying dilemmas, which is why the paper has polemic character. Introduction outlines the relevance of this methodology, as well as the relevance of the paper, as the first elaborated review of this subject in regional languages. Next follows the historical look at the pioneering project of collective memory-work, its feminist-Marxist background, as well as consideration of several theoretical aspects (subjectification, memories, experience and theory, collective deconstruction, person). Basic assumptions of the memory-work are derived from previous discussion and presented separately. The next section contains main directions of development and applications of the methodology, considerations relevant for psychological topics, and comparison with similar methodologies. Subsequent is the practical part of the paper, where the basic guidance for research is offered through progressive sequencing of the research phases. Finally, dilemmas regarding evaluation criteria for collective memory-work are discussed. In the conclusion, the place and relevance of this methodology for social-scientific and psychological research are summarized.
