Abstract
This presentation reflects on how creative methods have been effective in generating data with participants and in sharing the messages from research in multi-model outputs. Whilst much work has been done in person, with hands on activities such as collaging, drawing, and sandboxing, the COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a turn to the digital to support interaction during the associated lockdowns. Online methods had been in use in the previous decades, but the pandemic engendered far more reliance on the digital and creative methods were adapted accordingly. However, despite the affordances of online communications it also made more visible social inequalities and issues around digital exclusion. Additionally, support services for marginalised communities were impacted with differential impacts. The talk suggests that whilst digital innovations can be transformative, it is important to continually question their inclusivity, appropriateness and value rather than be caught up in chasing the novel and developing an over reliance on ever changing technological advances.
