Abstract
This chapter draws on audio-visual data of interaction in the virtual reality space Rec Room and conversation analysis to examine intersubjectivity and its maintenance and re-establishment during the word explanation activity in a “charades” game. Features of VR spaces can create restrictions for the users as they engage in activities, leading to challenges in the progression and organisation of interaction. This chapter examines instances where access to a drawing, participants’ differing perspectives and access to their avatar bodies present challenges to the progression of the word explanation activity. The findings of this study imply that the use of certain verbal and embodied resources in the VR space emerge as solutions that allow the activity to be completed.
