With this mailing  we would like to invite you to become a member of

gestures across disciplines.

On this site you will also find the membership form as well as our new
newsletter, Manufacts.

Secondly our  next  conference will be held at 2005 in Lyon, France
at the Universit? Lyon 2, France, June 15 - 18, 2005. It will be
organized by Lorenza Mondada and Jacques Cosnier. For information
