Hi Kara,
Thanks for the paper. I relate to your design approach (use of drawing tools
and camera) very well.
I think you may like to have a look at the following article where I have
discussed ‘self-documentation’ exercise, involving the creative use of a
digital camera, and ‘social map-drawing’ exercises with members of a
marginalized community in India:

Let me know if you need the pdf version of the article.
Best Regards,
