Abstract
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 stopping, intercepting, catching up, joining, queuing. It then deals with answers, showing the mobile responsive practices implementing them – such as stopping, moving forward, body-torqueing, walking backwards. These embodied practices are consequential for the type of action accomplished and their participation framework: they configure the question as a public vs. a personal one, recipient oriented to an individual vs. to a group.
