From stories to data and back

Maybe, stories are just data with a soul. That’s a statement of Dr. Brené Brown about her being a researcher, a storyteller, or both.

Today’s (big) (smart) data analytics is all about analyzing raw data, recorded from stories and stripped of soul. The recording context is the most soul that’s left.

The insights gained from analytics generates new data. But how do we add the right soul to that new data, to make it actionable, to tell the right stories? I think we need to record more context soul in the first place.

I’m a qualitative researcher. I collect stories; that’s what I do. And maybe stories are just data with a soul. And maybe I’m just a storyteller.
