questions, and later go through the recordings in detail. Wikan writes that; “I consider the use of tape recorder and also notebook problematic in social encounters in the field, and best to be avoided except for certain clearly defined purposes” (Wikan, 1992, p. 478). She connects this to our ability to have too much focus on the words themselves and their exact utterance, potentially losing important context and sometimes even the speaker’s intention. I do agree to some extent, which is the reason I seldom wrote in my notebook in front of my informant. My strategy was often to focus on the person speaking, listening, working towards an understanding of what they aimed to tell me. When choosing to record, I always asked the persons ahead of time, and only in an interview setting where it was somewhat expected of me. I used my phone to record, with the screen down not to be a focus-point, carrying out a conversation more or less naturally. The recordings were then transferred to my hard-disk and then deleted from my phone and computer. I had some notes with me but aimed for my interviews to be as natural as possible, letting my interlocutors lead the conversation without too much interruption. The Field as it Became My informants, or friends as I often refer to them as are mainly people that do not have any connection to each other. These people I would meet in bars or on different events such as concerts, voluntary work, or cultural walks. All of my informants fall under the category of young adults (18-33 years) in Yangon, manage a decent level of English, something which is not an evident skill, own a smartphone with Facebook, have an education and were interested in hanging out with me. I have a mixture of both male and female informants, as well as different levels of educations and personal interest. This made it possible for me to compare different topics and their interpretation or understanding of the situation. What is similar, what is different, and how can this be explained? Since my selection of informants have varying knowledge and proficiency within technology, even though most have an interest in this topic, I found it interesting to see how the different interpretations could play out and if it could show me something new. Since I was not able to find one particular group of people, I was dependent on meeting people whenever they had time. Also, I was aware that it needed to be worth their time since not all relations evolved into a true friendship. To make it a positive experience for them, as well as keeping the interest in catching up with me as we often said, I aimed to variate the activities or places we met up. Activities could be everything from meeting up at Ice-Berry for some ice cream, attending a concert, drinking beers at a bar or while eating dinner, trips to 30
