We are very happy to announce that the fourth workshop on Mapping Multimodal Dialogue MaMuD 4 will take place at the European University Viadrina, Frankfurt/Oder, Germany, on November 23 and 24, 2017. 

MaMuD is an (informal) international workshop bringing together a multidisciplinary community of both junior and senior researchers, interested in multimodal communication and interaction. The aim of the workshop is to foster discussion among participants on main theoretical issues in a small group of participants, aside from national and international conferences. MaMuD was initiated by Irene Mittelberg’s Natural Media Lab (RWTH Aachen). Two further workshops took place in Leuven (Kurt Feyarts, Gert Brône) and in Lille (Maarten Lemmens). The thematic focus of MaMuD 4 is “Multimodality: Embodiment and Intersubjectivity”. These two aspects of multimodality are understood and discussed differently within cognitive and interactional frameworks and, as such, pose challenges for the research on multimodal phenomena. MaMuD 4 aims at offering room to reflect on these theoretical concepts from the various perspectives represented in the MaMuD community and to discuss empirical issues arising from these notions.

Venue and Location


Location

The European University Viadrina is located directly at the heart of Europe, at the German-Polish border alongside the Oder River in Frankfurt/Oder.

Since its reestablishment in the year 1991, Viadrina has strictly adhered to its concept of bringing young people together from every corner of the world. This concept has proven to be successful: Viadrina has grown to become a lively, highly regarded member in the community of German and European universities.

The MaMuD international workshop will take place in the Logenhaus. Its modern seminar rooms provide an appropriate and supportive setting for collaborative work, concentrated discussion as well as relaxed exchange.
