Responding to the call of this special issue to be “ethnographic about ethnography,” we describe what we have learned about our own methods and collaborative practices through building digital infrastructure to support them. Supporting and accounting for how experimental ethnographic projects <em>move—</em>through different points in a research workflow, with many switchbacks, with project designs constantly changing as the research develops—was a key challenge. Addressing it depended on understanding creative data practices and analytic workflows, redesigning and building technological infrastructure, and constant attention to collaboration ethics. We refer to this as the need for doubletakes on method. We focus on the development of The Asthma Files, a collaborative ethnography project to understand the cultural dimensions of environmental health, and on the Platform for Experimental Collaborative Ethnography, digital infrastructure first built to support The Asthma Files but now available as a community resource for archiving, analyzing, and publishing ethnographic data and writing. A key finding is that different traditions and practices of ethnography require different infrastructures.</p>}, number={3}, journal={Science & Technology Studies}, author={Khandekar, Aalok and Costelloe-Kuehn, Brandon and Poirier, Lindsay and Morgan, Alli and Kenner, Alison and Fortun, Kim and Fortun, Mike and The PECE Design Team}, year={2021}, month={Sep.}, pages={78–102} }
