Abstract
There will be two mobilities at work in this chapter, the first being the mobility of the research subjects and the second being the mobility of the video data they produced. There will only be the space to touch on the topic of mobility given our orientation is to methods for its analysis. However, studying mobile cultures raises wider questions about how to engage with and respond to video as a form of data in the social sciences. These are questions about observation, authorship and confidence.
