Abstract

In a study of everyday digital identity, a set of primary drawings
were made by researchers in online focus group settings as a way to
capture our participants’ spoken narratives of hyper-[in]security in
the usages of digital identity. In a second stage of work, key extracts
from the drawings were collaged using the method described in the
paper, allowing an exploratory qualitative cartography of hyper-
[in]security to be constructed. These secondary collages group the
[in]securities thematically without losing essential contextual information.
Samples of our data are given, to illustrate the contribution
of the method to experience-centred design, with special reference
to security from the perspective of marginalised and underserved
communities.We discuss our method as a step towards multidimensional
cognitive mapping of the salient features of our participants’
narratives about hyper-[in]security, potentially paving the way for
further world building explorations of digital identity futures.
