Abstract

This chapter deals with the temporal deployment of multiple multimodal resources mobilized by the participants in social interaction, focussing on the emergent temporality of turns and actions. More precisely, it analyzes the participants mobilization of multimodal resources for achieving unit completions, showing how embodied completion is visibly achieved in an emergent way, how it is possibly revised by speakers and their co-participants as interaction unfolds in time, how embodied resources are integrated and embedded with language in a timely fashion. By so doing, the chapter reveals how participants use and configure complex multi­modal Gestalts in the orderly temporal arrangement of their turns, sequences and actions. Tt shows how these multimodal Gestalts involve not only talk and gesture, but also the entire body and its movements.
