In ethnology, folklore and related fields, we have long and established modes of handling &#8221;the field&#8221;.

With social platforms online having become ingrained in everyday life, we as researchers have moved where our informants have taken us: to chatrooms and forums, comment sections and social media. We are inventing new ways of doing our work as we go: the affordances of the media do for instance make it easier to add quant to our qual. However, I argue that much of our old truths of fieldwork still stands in the new online surroundings.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"color: #ea9629\" href=\"https:\/\/www.umu.se\/en\/events\/humlab-talk-doing-old-fashioned-fieldwork-in-new-social-spaces_11814825\/\">Read more and sign up here.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Bio<\/h3>\n<p>Tolgensbakk, Ida holds a PhD in cultural history and is senior curator at the Norwegian Museum of Cultural History.
