Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

Social scientists practice ethnomethodology when observing people's everyday activities, in order to use those activities as recordable and reportable data that can then be interpreted to gain insight about how people carry out those activities, to establish what people know about their environment and/or the activity within that environment, to evaluate activity models, and to evaluate how people use their knowledge and experience to make decisions or take action. All of these areas are relevant to creative practice research, which is usually conducted in order to study the act of creativity, the cognitive engagement of the practitioner at work, and/or effects of various experimental approaches on these elements.
