Abstract:

Objects are essential for how, together, people create and experience social
life and relate to the physical environment around them. Interacting with
Objects: Language, materiality, and social activity presents studies which use
video recordings of real-life settings to explore how objects feature in
social interaction and activity. The studies consider many objects (e.g. paper
documents, food, a camera, art, furniture, and even the human body), across
various situations, such as shopping, visiting the doctor, interviews and
meetings, surgery, and instruction in dance, craft, or cooking. Analyses
reveal in precise detail how, as people interact, objects are seen, touched
and handled, heard, created, transformed, planned, imagined, shared,
discussed, or appreciated. With the companion collection Multiactivity in
Social Interaction: Beyond multitasking, the book advances understanding of
the complex organisation and accomplishment of social interaction, especially
the significance of embodiment, materiality, participation and temporality. By
focussing on objects in and for actual occasions of human action, Interacting
with Objects: Language, materiality, and social activity will interest many
researchers and practitioners in language and social interaction,
communication and discourse, design, and also more widely within anthropology,
sociology, psychology, and related disciplines.
