For the exhibition at the Historisches Museum „On the Move! Frankfurt and Mobility“, we collaborated with illustrator Jonas Gallenkamp to create a hidden object picture (Wimmelbild) that provides an overview of the mobility data landscape in Frankfurt. The busy scene is framed by an ethnographic comic that depicts the research project. In the exhibition catalogue, we wrote an accompanying article on the intertwining of data and politics and explained our approach to ethnographic research on data journeys.
When data goes travelling. An ethnographic search for clues in Frankfurt’s mobility data.
