Hello Ingvild and Everyone!
Many thanks for this writing of eyegaze...Yes I read it and it is  
written clearly! And I can see that the writing points to someone  
over to the right and then the eyegaze follows to that spot while  
signing...this is fine! We do not need the video, or for you to re- 
write it at all...

As you know, Antonio Carlos was talking about the difference between  
a narrative or storytelling, and a real dialogue between two physical  
persons, as you said in your email above on September 7...two  
physical persons is a great way to describe it...smile...

So writing the dialogue between two physical persons is what I will  
try to write in November here on the List...I really liked your ideas  
of using vertical columns for common reference points, Ingvild...many  
thanks for that! And eyegaze is a big part of it ...you are right

And meanwhile, I wonder what happens to the third billy  
goat?...smile...Hope he survives the troll!  Val ;-)
