Multimodal stance-taking in interaction: A systematic literature review KU Leuven
Stance-taking, the public act of positioning oneself toward objects, people or states of affairs, has been studied in many fields of research. Recently, its multimodal realization in interaction has received increasing attention. The current contribution aims to take stock of research on multimodal stance-taking so far, and to present possible avenues for future research. We systematically gathered and appraised 76 articles that investigate the ...
Humor als benign violation: grappig zijn volstaat niet voor humor in professionele communicatie KU Leuven
Mapping musical dynamics in space. A qualitative analysis of conductors' movements in orchestra rehearsals KU Leuven
In this contribution, we examine the way in which orchestra conductors use the space around them to convey aspects of musical dynamics. In music, dynamics refers to the intensity of volume of notes and sounds and its interpretation is highly context-bound. We approach dynamics as a phenomenon of emergent and construed meaning in interaction, induced by the music score and the interpretation in situ by musicians and the conductor. Conductors' ...
Contrast Pairs in Orchestra Instruction as a Window into the Multimodal Expression of Stance KU Leuven
On the background of the increased interest in the phenomenon of stance-taking (i.a.

Contrast pairs are sequences of closely juxtaposed depictions ...
