|Abstract=Within conversation analysis and membership categorisation analysis, 
 
the  warrant  for  any  instance  of  analytic  interest  is  always  the  demonstrable 
 
relevance and consequentiality of the phenomena to the interactants. Demonstrating 
 
participants’  orientations  to  social  structural  contexts  poses  methodological 
 
difficulties,  as  such  orientations  are  often  fragmentary,  which  weakens  the 
 
possibility of exploring social structural features as omnipresent and influencing the 
 
understandings and actions of participants. In this paper, we revisit Sacks’s (1995) 
 
discussion  of  omnirelevance,  in  order  to  explore  the  possibility  of  approaching 
 
context within a multilayering of categorical relevances. We argue that, within the 
 
layering of membership devices in an episode of interaction, there is an analytically 
 
observable orientation to an omnirelevant device. This omnirelevant device operates 
 
as  background  to  the  occasioned  topic  devices  as  a  kind  of  ‘default’  orientation 
 
that organises the participation context. The analysis draws upon a transcript of an 
 
(ordinary)  conversation in  which  various  touched-off  topics  generate  interactional 
 
and  membership  devices.  While  these  devices  are  seen  to  organise  the  topic  at 
 
hand, there are occasions where topic talk is suspended and a different membership 
 
device is oriented to. The omnirelevant device reveals itself through the cracks, joints, 
 
and  articulation  of  touched  off-topic  devices,  suggesting  a  layering  and  hierarchy 
 
of  membership  devices.  By  exploring  the  notion  of  omnirelevant  devices  within 
 
interaction as part of a layering of topical membership devices, this paper argues for 
 
the possibility of exploring a wider participant orientation within interaction and the 
 
warrant to analytically invoke a backgrounded organisational device.
