In this episode I read Chapter 1: "Writing Culture - Recording
Culture" from the book "Recording culture" by Daniel Makagon
and Mark Neumann. This book can be understood as one of the most
important reflections on the increasingly popular methods in
ethnographic field work using recording technology. Besides this it
is exceptionally well written. The first chapter sheds some light
on the context of the so-called "writing culture debate" as a
context for equally important reflexions of recording practices as
method and means of the study of culture. I originally read this
text for the seminar "Writing culture - recording culture" I taught
in the spring term of 2019 at the university of Bern. Bibliography:
