A note to self as much as a post for other people:

• Through Design Fiction (e.g. Zero Hours)
• Through Social Fiction (e.g. Low Fat Love)
• Through Visual Journalism (e.g. Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt)
• Through Visual Biography (e.g. Robert Moses: The Master Builder of New York City)
• Through Graphic Novels (I lack examples of this – I’m also aware the distinction between ‘graphic novels’ and ‘visual biography’ and ‘visual journalism’ may be so fine grained as to be pretty meaningless)
• Through Photography ( e.g. Art Sexual)
• Through Philosophical Biography (e.g. Wittgenstein, The Courtier’s Heretic)
• Through Creative Non-Fiction (e.g. Zeitoun, Venkatesh’s work)
• Through Film (e.g. Rufus Stone)
• Through Theater (e.g. the Fabulous Ruins of Detroit) [thanks Helen!]
• Through Video Games (e.g. Celiac Sam)
• Through Buzzfeed Style Lists (e.g. this)
• Through Walking Tours (e.g. the superb tour of Manhattan given by an urban sociologist at the 2015 Eastern Sociological Society conference)
• Through Podcasted Dialogues (e.g. the Promise of Sociology in 2015)
• Through Filmed Dialogues (e.g. British Sociology since 1945 or this dialogue between Carol Smart and Jeffrey Weeks)
• Through Stand Alone Prezis & Slideshare (e.g. I’ve never given this as a talk in person or intended to)

I’ll expand this properly at a later date when I have more time. Any further examples much appreciated though!
