P2P ethnography

Responding to the current shift of ethnographic research towards the investigation of mobile and multi-sited communities, it is necessary to look at social formations that are dynamic and fluid, in constant movement across space(s) (Marcus 1998). The ethnographic methodology is shaped by, and mirror, the networks, spaces, practices of co-creation and collaborative ethos of the “subject” communities. This ethnography needs to be collaborative and ‘peer to peer’ (p2p). In “collaborative ethnography”, researcher and participants will share observations and fieldnotes (Holmes & Marcus 2008). This will enable multiple voices to contribute actively in the making of the ethnography. Complementary to this is the p2p ethnography to enable each participant – as a node within the network - to know, reflect upon and react to the various positions of other individuals and groups within it. P2p ethnography (Iaconesi et al. 2013) can be considered as a space in which participants position themselves, and from which they are able to observe the dynamic, emergent transformation of the network and of groups and individuals that constitute it. Shifts of position and movement within the network can be recorded and charted as maps. This ethnography, which also involves a self-reflexive exploration of the researcher’s position within/across/in-between the field-site, approaches the ‘field site as a network’ in which the researcher moves and dwells (Burrell 2009). [15]

DIWO : Do-It-With-Others

For DIWO, collaborating with others is, thus paramount. Creative practices thrive in collaboration rather than competition. DIWO is an “artistic co-creation” and a “decentralized method of peer empowerment.” DIWO is like a progression from the DIY which was a kind of maverick, pioneers, like Internet pioneers, “we can do it ourselves” which was a kind of autonomy. While DIWO is about combining forces with others to move on and make things together.

DIWO requires openness, spaces where components from different sources meet, mix, crossover, and combine to build a hybrid experience. It challenges and renegotiates the respective power roles of artists and curators. It brings all actors to the fore: artists become co-curators; curators can also become co-creators. The source materials are open to all, to remix, re-edit, and redistribute, either within a particular DIWO event/longer-term project, or elsewhere. Significantly, the process is as important as the outcome: these mutually respective engagements constitute relationally aware peer enactments.

DIWO relies not only on skilled cooperation, but also on peer-to-peer (P2P) practices and Media Art Ecologies. [16]

Enspiral is a bold experiment to create a collaborative network that helps people do meaningful work.

DIWO:

DIWO, the acronym for Do-It-With-Others, is a "contemporary way of collaborating and exploiting the advantages of living in the Internet age that connected with the many art worlds that diverge from the market of commoditized objects—a network enabled art practice, drawing on everyday experience of many connected, open and distributed creative beings." (social-ecology).
