Expanding Interview Methodology with AI: From photo elicitation to inquiry graphics

In this workshop, Dr Nataša Lacković will explore how GenAI images can be used as part of an interview method. The workshop will focus on why, when and how abstract concepts and topics across disciplines can be “translated” into images, extending the widely known research method of photo-elicitation interviews into inquiry graphics interviews. These types of interviews can also be understood as arts-based, artefact-based, visual and/or multimodal interviews.Inquiry graphics interviews are distinctive in that they build on sociomaterial and semiotic principles for data creation and analysis, which will be discussed during the workshop.Participants will engage in creating an image in response to a specific research question, and discussing the method, its potential and its challenges, including the tricky positionality of AI in research.  For this purpose, attendees should bring a mobile device, preferably a laptop, and have access to an AI platform capable of generating images, such as ChatGPT. 
There will also be an opportunity to follow up on the workshop through a joint publication.
