Meeting Description:

8th edition of GeSpIn with the theme “Broadening Perspectives, Integrating
Views: Towards General Principles of Multimodal Signaling Systems”

GeSpIn is an interdisciplinary event for researchers working on the
interaction between speech and visual communicative signals, such as
articulatory, manual, and bodily gestures co-occurring with speech. At GeSpIn
2023 we hope to bring together researchers working on visual signals together
with vocalization or speech, from multidisciplinary perspectives in order to
exchange ideas and present the cutting edge of their field. This 8th edition
of GeSpIn will be held in Nijmegen, the Netherlands and will focus on the
theme of “Broadening Perspectives, Integrating Views: Towards General
Principles of Multimodal Signaling Systems”.


Call for Papers:

Date: Wed 13- Fri 15th of September
Paper submission opens: January 10th, 2023
Paper submission deadline: March 15th, 2023
Notification of acceptance/rejection: end of May, 2023
Registration open: TBA
Registration open: TBA

We encourage researchers working on (multimodal) prosody, social anthropology,
philosophy, (psycho)linguistics, psychology, cognitive science, neuroscience,
human movement science, computer science (e.g., human-computer interaction),
comparative biology, and more to submit their research to address topics such
as:

Do principles of speech-gesture interaction generalize to, or interact with,
other multimodal interactions and forms of audiovisual integration (e.g.,
speech interacting with head gestures or facial signals)?
What methods in computer science can be used to characterize and synthesize
the (temporal) interactions between speech and gesture, within and between
agents?
How is speech-gesture coupling influenced by the immediate dialogic context
(e.g., behavior of the interlocutor, or speech act being performed)
Can multimodal signaling as studied in non-human animals teach us something
fundamental about multimodal communication systems that also applies to
humans?
What can cross-linguistic comparisons of speech-gesture interaction teach us
about the underlying principles of multimodal coordination?
Development of gesture-speech coordination: Can general principles of
development be identified? Are there sensitive periods and developmental
stages?
What is the role of basic biomechanical or neural processes in visual and
auditory signaling and the perception of said multimodal signals?

Please note that all researchers and theoreticians/philosophers working on the
interaction between gesture/visual and sound-producing cues (e.g., in terms of
pragmatics, prosody, semantics) should feel invited, also if their particular
study does not fit these topics exactly.
