1st step for research
1) Picking a topic
- TERMS in book, but we will talk about some here
What would you investigate?
What the teacher investigated in her research and how she did it…
GRAFFITI
- Energy, representing yourself, nuisance, art movement, all around the world,
public property, capitalistic society, being arrested for it
How do these artists communicate?
- What do things mean (symbolic interaction approach)
- Symbolism
- Politics
Why do people get into this?
- Laws
What does i mean to be an art movement? (conflict)
- Control of public space (social conflict)
“Nobody even listened to me until they didn’t know who I was” - Banksy
Graffiti would be a constructionist perspective - some right to it
2) Research and Reading
- Justify this - why are you doing it?
- What happens when you leave?
Identity
→ changes to PLACE
IRB → institutional review board
- Have to pass it by there
Field Work
- research in the field
Snowball Recruiting
- world of mouth - gender of the researcher matters (imagine if you
were a girl or a guy and how this would affect it)
Example
: a group of all men artists would most likely give their information to a women
because they know their field is mostly consisted of men, and that a women wouldn’t
want to compete with them, only simply get information
3) Collecting the data
4) Analysis
Ethical concerns
...Susan Phillips
- Symbolism for only the subculture, excluding everyone else
- Structural functional
RANDOM SAMPLING
- Convert of overt? In this research?
Overt = because people knew she was a researcher ( it would be convert if people
didn't know)
