Dear list members - we hope to shortly embark on research that will
include video recording of domestic practices as part of an ethnographic
approach that will include other elements of qualitative data
generation. However, we wish to use those recordings both in a
quantitative (recording & mapping what goes on, who does what, how long
practices take, how practices follow one another on, etc.) and
qualitative manner (the latter by interpreting and by inducing domestic
practitioners to talk about the how and why of their practices). We
wonder how we are going to analyse this material, and whether anyone
could recommend software that would be good for the integrated analysis
of the video recordings and the ethnographic materials, including the
quantitative element. We are grateful for your answers & suggestions.
