ABSTRACT
This chapter demonstrates challenges raised by a specific approach to story and research methods in practice. It considers the valuable theoretical imagery in these terms and the implication of such imagery for untold story research methods and practice. The chapter demonstrates the value of ethnographic fieldwork as opposed to interview in surfacing boundless stories. It uses examples from deep-field ethnography to illustrate how the field might be constructed by sustaining an itinerant approach and following stories on the move. The chapter examines the social imagery and theoretical assumptions that the approach contained before moving on to consider method in action. It illustrates that situations are neither trivial nor value free. David Boje offered a valuable and safe anchor point from which to raise connections between untold storytelling research and untold stories found by actor network theorists (ANT) and their close companions working in science and technology studies.
