How to work/collaborate/mobilize with people we love? How do we consider the challenges and possibilities that emerge when the work of thinking and doing is not severed from pre-existing interpersonal responsibilities?

We look forward to thinking through these questions together. Head to our website to find out more about the 2026 Studio Days! https://t.co/z3abcteprL

The 2026 Studio Days, hosted by the Ethnography Studio brings ethnographers together for a series of hands-on sessions focused on ethnographic engagement with “models”.

[the Ethnography Studio (@ethnographystudio.blue) @ethnostudio]

What makes a model a tool or object of ethnographic research? What can models allow us to envision or prevent us from seeing? What are the limitations and possibilities of models in ethnographic projects?

During the American Anthropological Association Annual Meeting, held in New Orleans, Louisiana, the Ethnography Studio and the architecture firm Multistudio hosted a collaborative workshop to think about the relationship between property and materiality.

[the Ethnography Studio (@ethnographystudio.blue) @ethnostudio]

We asked: where does property exist? In a thing or an idea? What are the values, assumptions, or benefits of ownership? To investigate these questions we brought together 15 participants to discuss how issues of property arise in their work.

Excited for tomorrow’s workshop in New Orleans! Co-organized with @multistudio_
