  1. Facet Methodology – a creative research orientation Presentation for the Late Life Creativity Network University of Keele, 16 March 2012 Jennifer Mason Realities at the Morgan Centre University of Manchester www.manchester.ac.uk/morgancentre/realities

  2. Some problems with social science methods • Sterility, life wrung out • Experience? Resonance? • Lacking in multi-sensory ‘aliveness’ • Enumerative logic • Categories, typologies, compromises, separations • Rules and orthodoxies rather than creativity and inventiveness

  3. Facet Methodology • An orientation, not a set of procedures • Inventiveness. A playful approach to epistemology • A visual metaphor, used gently

  4. Facet Methodology • A connective and ‘entangled’ ontology – experience of being alive, living in the world

  5. Facet Methodology • Facets as always methodological and substantive

  6. Facet Methodology • Flashes of insight

  7. Facet Methodology • Casting and refracting light

  8. Facet Methodology • ‘Troubling’ existing assumptions and perspectives

  9. Facet Methodology • Playing with epistemologies – astuteness, openness, empathy, humility, inventiveness
