Sensory Ethnography

Comerica Park evokes an array of emotions; primarily nostalgia. The smell of Ballpark hotdogs, the deafening sound of fans cheering, the seventh inning stretch - all moments in time that tug at personal memories and become even richer as new memories are made. This project involved personal hands-on research of a location resulting in a final printed book showcasing a sensory ethnography of Comerica Park with nods to the history of the Detroit Tigers and their fans.
