This is the first book dedicated to the study of the complexities that arise in embodied interaction from the multiplicity of time-scales on which its component processes unfold. It shows in microscopic detail how people synchronize and sequence modal resources such as talk, gaze, gesture, and object-manipulation to accomplish social actions. The studies show that each of these resources has its own temporal trajectory, affordances and restrictions, which enable and constrain the fine-grained work of bodily self-organization and interaction with others. Focusing on extended interactional time scales, some of the contributors investigate ways in which larger interactional episodes and relationships between actions are brought about and how actions build on shared interactional histories. The book makes a strong case for the use of video in the study of social interaction. It proposes an enlarged vision of Conversation Analysis that puts the body and its interactive temporalities center stage.

<i>Time in Embodied Action</i> recognizes that time is fundamental to organized activity. This move illuminates CA, throws new light on bodily coordination and, importantly, treats modalities as inseparable from timing. Its achievement attests, above all, to the value of methodological reduction in model building (e.g. of Embodied Interaction).

Each chapter of this fascinating collection shows how we delicately coordinate and make sense of each others' talk as it is embedded in physical movements, postures, and the material environment. This collection of papers moves our field forward one giant step towards comprehending the rich role of the body in the orderliness of human encounters.

The volume is consistently well-written and beautifully presented, with a large number of screenshots in colour in every chapter. The introductory chapter by the editors [...] presents a very clear case for the need for the analytic focus it proposes and helpfully situates the chapters against the background of existing research. All the relevant points from across the volume are accounted for and presented within a broader discussion of the literature and the field. This helps the reader fill in the gaps while reading the individual chapters.

This volume is a testament to the breadth and depth of the two editors’ foundational work on the study of embodied interaction and will undoubtedly provide a valuable reference for researchers who are interested in the fields of CA and multimodal discourse studies.

This chapter deals with the concepts of <i>projection</i> and <i>conditional relevance</i> by examining the temporal and sequential relationship between speech, gesture and gaze in deictic practices. It makes the following claims: Verbal deictics combined with embodied practices that direct the addressee’s attention to visible phenomena form a multimodal, intercorporeal <i>gestalt</i>. They constitute a request for the addressee’s gaze. This means that within the deictic referencing act, a multimodal summons-answer sequence unfolds that comprises recurrent gaze patterns both of the pointing and the gazing participant. These gaze practices are context-sensitive and temporally fine-tuned to the emerging verbal and kinetic practices, they occupy specific positions within the deictic act which in turn can be embedded within other actions such as instructions, requests etc.

turn-constructional unit

This chapter investigates ways in which multiple participants coordinate actions within a temporally unfolding “turn-constructional unit (TCU)” in Japanese conversation. Utterances are shaped by ongoing processes of participation and speakers modulate the structure of their emerging TCU with recipients’ dynamic stance-displays. Building on Iwasaki (2011, 2013), the paper examines ways in which speakers delay the further realization of an unfolding unit by suspending its progressivity, and incorporate recipients’ actions into the design of the turn. The speaker creates interstitial spaces right after or immediately before producing a component conveying speaker’s stance and affiliation, and invites recipient’s actions toward the particular component before completing the turn. This chapter illustrates systematic multimodal practices within unit construction that enable emergent forms of participation.

Based on talk-oriented activities, there seems to be a consensus that turn-taking is organized to minimize gaps between turns. This study looks at a conversational sequence that evolved in a multi-party setting during a joint cleaning of a sheep stable, and analyzes how nextness is accomplished in an unproblematic manner after extensive silences. It argues that due to the non-cognitive but physically straining nature of the activity in a confined space, chatting is almost constant but response relevance is reduced. It discusses the moral orders of talk and work in this multiactivity setting, where urgency is not an issue, and suggests that data collection for sequence analysis be more attentive to the systematic differences between talk-oriented and other settings.

Since Lerner coined the notion of <i>delayed completion</i> in 1989, this recurrent social practice of continuing one’s speaking turn while disregarding an intermediate co-participant’s utterance has not been investigated with regard to embodied displays and actions. A sequential approach to videotaped mundane conversations in German will explain the occurrence and use of delayed completions. First, especially in multi-party and multi-activity settings, delayed completions can result from reduced monitoring and coordinating activities. Second, recipients can use intra-turn response slots for more extended responsive actions than the current speaker initially projected, leading to delayed completion sequences. Finally, delayed completions are used for blocking possibly misaligned co-participant actions. The investigation of visible action illustrates that delayed completions are a basic practice for retrospectively managing co-participant response slots.

The paper contributes to the study of complex multimodal Gestalts involving mobile bodies in interaction and to an approach of action formation considering embodiment and the local ecology of the activity. The analyses deal with question-answer sequences in guided visits and provide for a systematic analysis of the interactional space in which they are produced. More specifically, it deals with questions asked when the guide is about to move vs. while the guide is walking ahead, showing different mobile practices making them possible – such as <i>stopping, intercepting, catching up, joining, queuing.</i> It then deals with answers, showing the mobile responsive practices implementing them – such as <i>stopping, moving forward, body-torqueing, walking backwards</i>. These embodied practices are consequential for the type of action accomplished and their participation framework: they configure the question as a <i>public vs.</i> a <i>personal</i> one, recipient oriented to an individual vs. to a group.

In this chapter, I examine synchronous body movements made by an orchestral conducting teacher and students while engaging one another in an instructional interaction. This behavioral synchrony, which I refer to as <i>bodily shadowing,</i> provides participants with effective ways to learn and teach orchestral conducting skills. It is important for students to move their bodies as the teacher moves his because students learn forms of body movement that are situated in a specific temporal context. By analyzing the elements of the teacher’s behavior that are chosen for shadowing and how shadowing is initiated, I demonstrate the process by which participants communicate the correction. Additionally, I explain how bodily shadowing becomes a means to display understanding and a way of participating in an apprenticeship interaction.

Theater rehearsals have a characteristic temporal organization: They rely on fleeting (talk/embodied conduct) and endurable resources (e.g. manipulation of objects) to accomplish a stage play which has a defined shape. In doing this, participants have to bridge time gaps and they are therefore dependent on practices which are able to prefigure the future in a more sustainable way. Based on video recordings from theater rehearsals I will show the basic operation of these practices: While projections-by-arrangements anticipate the play world verbally, preparations produce material parts of the play world (e.g. attaching props). Finally, I consider more general implications of the differences between “verbalizing” (projections) and “materializing” (preparations) for the temporalities of interactional organization.

This paper examines participants’ negotiation of temporality in the service-assessment activity in haircutting sessions. The customer performs an adequate inspection to validate their assessment, and the stylist secures enough time for the customer’s self-inspection to ensure their satisfaction. Yet, an efficient progress of this activity is crucial, as there are often subsequent customers waiting. My analysis shows that this dilemma of taking enough time without taking too much time is managed by the participants’ embodiment of <i>valid</i> activity progress, which is realized through their (sometimes asynchronous) mobilization of multimodal resources. Such activity organization helps participants not only to embody the meaningful (versus wasted) consumption of time, but also to secure the customer’s enhanced appreciation of the service outcome.

This paper studies how the turn-design of a highly recurrent type of action changes over time. Based on a corpus of video-recordings of German driving lessons, we consider one type of instructions and analyze how the same instructional action is produced by the same speaker (the instructor) for the same addressee (the student) in consecutive trials of a learning task. We found that instructions become increasingly shorter, indexical and syntactically less complex; interactional sequences become more condensed and activities designed to secure mutual understanding become rarer. This study shows how larger temporal frameworks of interpersonal interactional histories which range beyond the interactional sequence impinge on the recipient-design of turns and the deployment of multimodal resources in situ.

This chapter discusses how multiple time-scales intersect in a particular unit of embodied communicative action, body postures that are held for a moment (beyond the single sequence of talk). These time-scales are the immediate moment and its position within the unfolding interaction sequence; the personal (‘historical’) relationship among the specific persons adopting it (its duration); the workday over whose course the body tires; and the life-course over which a bodily ‘habitus’ is formed. The specific shape of a socially meaningful posture is not only responsive to interactional circumstances and tasks, as well as the relational history of the parties, but also a result of the body’s ongoing adaptations to its own organic needs, a factor taken into account in everyday perceptions and descriptions of postures, but yet to be addressed in interaction research. The posture samples in this chapter are taken from interactions in an auto-shop and a high-school classroom.

It makes the following claims: Verbal deictics combined with embodied practices that direct the addressee’s attention to visible phenomena form a multimodal, intercorporeal <i>gestalt</i>. They constitute a request for the addressee’s gaze. This means that within the deictic referencing act, a multimodal summons-answer sequence unfolds that comprises recurrent gaze patterns both of the pointing and the gazing participant. These gaze practices are context-sensitive and temporally fine-tuned to the emerging verbal and kinetic practices, they occupy specific positions within the deictic act which in turn can be embedded within other actions such as instructions, requests etc.

This chapter investigates ways in which multiple participants coordinate actions within a temporally unfolding “turn-constructional unit (TCU)” in Japanese conversation. Utterances are shaped by ongoing processes of participation and speakers modulate the structure of their emerging TCU with recipients’ dynamic stance-displays. Building on Iwasaki (2011, 2013), the paper examines ways in which speakers delay the further realization of an unfolding unit by suspending its progressivity, and incorporate recipients’ actions into the design of the turn. The speaker creates interstitial spaces right after or immediately before producing a component conveying speaker’s stance and affiliation, and invites recipient’s actions toward the particular component before completing the turn. This chapter illustrates systematic multimodal practices within unit construction that enable emergent forms of participation.

Since Lerner coined the notion of <i>delayed completion</i> in 1989, this recurrent social practice of continuing one’s speaking turn while disregarding an intermediate co-participant’s utterance has not been investigated with regard to embodied displays and actions. A sequential approach to videotaped mundane conversations in German will explain the occurrence and use of delayed completions. First, especially in multi-party and multi-activity settings, delayed completions can result from reduced monitoring and coordinating activities. Second, recipients can use intra-turn response slots for more extended responsive actions than the current speaker initially projected, leading to delayed completion sequences. Finally, delayed completions are used for blocking possibly misaligned co-participant actions. The investigation of visible action illustrates that delayed completions are a basic practice for retrospectively managing co-participant response slots.

The paper contributes to the study of complex multimodal Gestalts involving mobile bodies in interaction and to an approach of action formation considering embodiment and the local ecology of the activity. The analyses deal with question-answer sequences in guided visits and provide for a systematic analysis of the interactional space in which they are produced. More specifically, it deals with questions asked when the guide is about to move vs. while the guide is walking ahead, showing different mobile practices making them possible – such as <i>stopping, intercepting, catching up, joining, queuing.</i> It then deals with answers, showing the mobile responsive practices implementing them – such as <i>stopping, moving forward, body-torqueing, walking backwards</i>. These embodied practices are consequential for the type of action accomplished and their participation framework: they configure the question as a <i>public vs.</i> a <i>personal</i> one, recipient oriented to an individual vs. to a group.

synchronization

In this chapter, I examine synchronous body movements made by an orchestral conducting teacher and students while engaging one another in an instructional interaction. This behavioral synchrony, which I refer to as <i>bodily shadowing,</i> provides participants with effective ways to learn and teach orchestral conducting skills. It is important for students to move their bodies as the teacher moves his because students learn forms of body movement that are situated in a specific temporal context. By analyzing the elements of the teacher’s behavior that are chosen for shadowing and how shadowing is initiated, I demonstrate the process by which participants communicate the correction. Additionally, I explain how bodily shadowing becomes a means to display understanding and a way of participating in an apprenticeship interaction.

theater rehearsals

Theater rehearsals have a characteristic temporal organization: They rely on fleeting (talk/embodied conduct) and endurable resources (e.g. manipulation of objects) to accomplish a stage play which has a defined shape. In doing this, participants have to bridge time gaps and they are therefore dependent on practices which are able to prefigure the future in a more sustainable way. Based on video recordings from theater rehearsals I will show the basic operation of these practices: While projections-by-arrangements anticipate the play world verbally, preparations produce material parts of the play world (e.g. attaching props). Finally, I consider more general implications of the differences between “verbalizing” (projections) and “materializing” (preparations) for the temporalities of interactional organization.

This paper examines participants’ negotiation of temporality in the service-assessment activity in haircutting sessions. The customer performs an adequate inspection to validate their assessment, and the stylist secures enough time for the customer’s self-inspection to ensure their satisfaction. Yet, an efficient progress of this activity is crucial, as there are often subsequent customers waiting. My analysis shows that this dilemma of taking enough time without taking too much time is managed by the participants’ embodiment of <i>valid</i> activity progress, which is realized through their (sometimes asynchronous) mobilization of multimodal resources. Such activity organization helps participants not only to embody the meaningful (versus wasted) consumption of time, but also to secure the customer’s enhanced appreciation of the service outcome.

This paper studies how the turn-design of a highly recurrent type of action changes over time. Based on a corpus of video-recordings of German driving lessons, we consider one type of instructions and analyze how the same instructional action is produced by the same speaker (the instructor) for the same addressee (the student) in consecutive trials of a learning task. We found that instructions become increasingly shorter, indexical and syntactically less complex; interactional sequences become more condensed and activities designed to secure mutual understanding become rarer. This study shows how larger temporal frameworks of interpersonal interactional histories which range beyond the interactional sequence impinge on the recipient-design of turns and the deployment of multimodal resources in situ.

This chapter discusses how multiple time-scales intersect in a particular unit of embodied communicative action, body postures that are held for a moment (beyond the single sequence of talk). These time-scales are the immediate moment and its position within the unfolding interaction sequence; the personal (‘historical’) relationship among the specific persons adopting it (its duration); the workday over whose course the body tires; and the life-course over which a bodily ‘habitus’ is formed. The specific shape of a socially meaningful posture is not only responsive to interactional circumstances and tasks, as well as the relational history of the parties, but also a result of the body’s ongoing adaptations to its own organic needs, a factor taken into account in everyday perceptions and descriptions of postures, but yet to be addressed in interaction research. The posture samples in this chapter are taken from interactions in an auto-shop and a high-school classroom.
