Thinking data with Deleuze.

In this paper the author is thinking with Deleuze's philosophical concept of the 'image' of the speech-act in cinema and the implications for methodology and ethics in qualitative research. Drawing on research in the USA with white teachers, this paper will specifically engage with Deleuzian concepts presented in his two books on cinema and his philosophical concept of the 'image' toward a re-imaging of voice. To think with the 'image' of speech-acts and how voice is conveyed in a cinematic sense, particularly if one is to consider silent films, is to think about 'viewing' voice in qualitative research, and how such viewing might make it possible to 'read' the image of voice from a multi-dimensional perspective.
