SUMMARY:Embodied Interaction – Multimodality – Intercorporeality: New Perspectives on "I's" and "We's" in Interaction
DESCRIPTION:Guest lecture by Christian Meyer (Universität Konstanz) \n\nLoc
 ation: room B101 in Fabrikstrasse 8 at the vonRoll campus of UniBern\n\nAbs
 tract: In recent times, embodied and multimodal approaches have not only wi
 dened the scope of interaction research to encompass further modalities but
  also demonstrated the need to reconfigure basic theoretical assumptions de
 rived from the former verbal-vocal and visual focus. In particular, researc
 h on touch (Nishizaka, M. Goodwin, Cekaite) has drawn our attention to the 
 fact that in some social situations, it is impossible to attribute single a
 ctions to individual participants. Rather, moments of intercorporeality and
  interkinaesthesia (Streeck, Meyer) make clear that in many social activiti
 es, the multimodal capabilities of the body and its movements are (re-) use
 d by co-participants as objects or media, so that sometimes individual part
 icipation becomes blurred and the acting unit might be called a “we”. Thus,
  rather than being constituted by the coordination or alignment of discrete
  individuals, some social actions are intrinsically accomplished by “we’s”.
  In my talk, I will try to identify some of the circumstances that are nece
 ssary for the formation of “we’s” and I will describe some of the multimoda
 l practices and intercorporeal procedures that are employed to prepare, est
 ablish, and close we-agentic units in their sequential embeddedness.\n\nCen
