Abstract
In cowriting this article, we set out to (re)vision qualitative research data. From the domain of “traditional” methods of interviewing, we attempted to slip—differently and productively—away from data conceptualized as stable, knowable, and collectible. Our revisionary approach was to view data as words at play in theory. Deleuze and Guattari’s (1980/1987) logic of the AND encouraged our experimentation, and so paired with their concept of the rhizome, we began to think and do data differently, by mapping connections, movements, and flows of data/words across a visual script: situating data in a dynamic space of multiplicity, unsettling constraints within the discourse of scholarship. We conceptualized ho/rhizoanalysis, rendering the joyful currents of connection and expression that data invites. What can become on the written page is a structure that is both bounded, yet in which, we can still play.
