ABSTRACT
This chapter reflects on the engagement in critical research practices, especially in how they relate to field notes. It then explores the relationship between and field notes and subjectivities. The chapter discusses how the framework explains the emergence of subjectivities in the field helped to understand field notes in relation to disruptions in narrations, expectations and representations. Feminist, critical race and indigenous scholars' contributions to understanding power relations in relation to self, identity, subjectivity and knowledge production have been shaping contemporary theoretical and methodological discussions in geographical thought. A fundamental part of ethonographic research, field notes are generally conceptualized as brute data. By rejecting essentialized understandings of the self, Braidotti's nomadism offers novel ways of thinking about contemporary subjectivity as well as interconnectedness and affinities between various social groups across spaces. The chapter concludes by providing some themes that build upon the idea of what is defined as becoming fieldnotes.
