ETHNOGRAPHY & DESIGN MUTUAL PROVOCATIONSWelcome to the UC Collaboratory for Ethnographic Design’s 2016 conference. We are delighted to present speakers from around the world in a series of curated roundtables, interactive workshops, and multimedia and performance works.

When ethnographers talk about design, are they offering a critique of a practice as complicit with global capitalism? Building new and innovative modes of integrating ethnographic practice with collaborative maker-practice? Or exploring

innovations in research design that engage digital, visual, and performative formats?

We look forward to engaging with you in these conversations and more over the course of the three day conference.
