Paper long abstract

In this paper we explore how live and archival methods can be brought together in social research, focusing on a project that involves the reverse engineering of thirty year old study of teenage sexuality. In the paper we elaborate on the important place of feminist methodologies within a transdiciplinary archival turn and conceptualise a series of moves that operationalize time itself as a resource for social analysis. These include rematriating and reanimating data, and different kinds of temporal mash-ups. Our focus on women of different generations together researching time, technology and teenage sexuality allows us to image time travel as a feminist methodological practice that connects academia to other knowledge communities .
