Meeting Description:

This conference explores how changes in society emerge in interactions and
discourses. How do these changes influence, and how are they influenced by,
participants in various contexts of work and everyday life? We warmly welcome
contributions that outline future trends and present new perspectives on
interaction and discourse studies. Presentations may investigate the
complexity of different settings, data, methods and theories.

The invited keynote speakers address the conference theme from their
respective viewpoints:

Jon Hindmarsh, King’s College London
Rodney Jones, University of Reading
Leena Kuure, University of Oulu
Paul McIlvenny, Aalborg University


Call for Papers:

We invite papers and posters from different viewpoints, such as:

- Methodologies in flux: developing and combining different methods and
materials, covering also big data and thick data
- Research approaches in flux: reconsidering theories, societal impact of
research, researchers' responsibility in engaging in public discourse
- Technologies in flux: relationships and interactions with, via and within
ubiquitous technologies
- Participation in flux: examinations of togetherness, encounters and human
sociality in different settings; how access and participation may be
redefined, e.g., in working life, education and online environments

The theme can be examined from, but is not restricted to, the following
research approaches and strategies: action research, activity theory, content
analysis, conversation analysis, cultural-historical activity theory,
discourse analysis, ethnography, mediated discourse analysis, multimodal
interaction analysis, narrative analysis and nexus analysis.

The main language of the conference is English, but presentations in other
languages are also welcome.
