Vocal practices for achieving embodied coordination
Pekarek Doehler, Keevallik, Li have edited a special issue at Frontiers in Communication on The Grammar-Body Interface, with an introduction here. Abstract: Human communication rests on a complex ecology of multiple resources that are orchestrated for collaborative meaning-making and coordination of social action. The aim of this Research Topic is to analyze how grammar and …

Pelikan & Hofstetter have recently published "Managing Delays in Human-Robot Interaction". Abstract: Delays in the completion of joint actions are sometimes unavoidable. How should a robot communicate that it cannot immediately act or respond in a collaborative task? Drawing on video recordings of a face scanning activity in family homes, we investigate how humans make …

Pelikan, Keevallik, and Broth have published a paper, entitled "When a Robot Comes to Life: The Interactional Achievement of Agency as a Transient Phenomenon". Abstract: Conceptualizing agency is a long-standing theoretical concern. Taking an ethnomethodological and conversation analytic perspective, we explore agency as the oriented to capacity to produce situationally and sequentially relevant action. Drawing …

At the online Digital Meeting for Conversation Analysis, Oct. 31st-Nov. 4th 2022, Pelikan presented on "How an autonomous shuttle bus could sound in interaction". Abstract: Sound, often in the form of honks, is an important interaction device for managing accountability on the road (Deppermann et al., 2018; Laurier et al., 2020). Autonomous shuttle buses are …
