Meeting Description:

The cross-fertilization of linguistics and the study of multimodal
communication has now continued for half a century or so, integrating the
interdependencies between verbal (speech) and nonverbal means of face-to-face
communication (paralanguage; co-speech gestures, postures, and facial
expressions), the complex relations between text and images in various
cultural artefacts (advertisements, comics, films, etc.), and including
explorations of multiple modalities in posters, textbooks, picture books,
assembly instructions, information graphics, webpages, social media, computer
and video games, radio and television broadcasts, corporate logos, graffiti,
performance art, and even medieval textiles.

While linguistic theory has always informed, as well as benefitted from,
research into multimodal communication, with systemic-functional linguistics
and cognitive linguistics arguably providing the most widespread approaches to
analysis of multimodal artefacts, multimodality studies has become an
increasingly interdisciplinary field of research, interfacing more and more
productively not only with linguistics, but also with semiotics, psychology,
education, sociology, anthropology, media studies, comics studies, literary
theory, film studies, gender studies, and translation studies.


Call for Papers: 

This conference aims to explore the theoretical and analytical synergies
emerging from combined application of techniques, approaches, theories, and
methodologies originating from diverse disciplines in pursuit of increasingly
more satisfying characterizations of the meaning-making processes involved in
creation and interpretation of multimodal artefacts and their transformation
across media. We invite a broad range of papers (theoretical discussions, case
reports, experimental studies, text analyses, methodological explorations,
etc.) that pertain, either more or less directly, to this topic.

This conference is planned as an online event. There is no conference fee.
Proposals of about 300 words, together with a biographical note (100−150
words), should be sent to multimodality2021 at uwr.edu.pl by August 31, 2021.
