My past and
current projects
I'm interested in how a seemingly stable format for communication -language structures- are co-constructed in the process of organizing face-to-face human interactions. I use conversation analysis to show how that works.
Currently, I am involved in research on:
-documenting and reporting on language use in metro Portland (with LAMP),
especially language use and variation on the Portland State campus
-the reflexive relationship of the environment, mobility, digital technology, language, and learning (with503dc)
-human-canine interaction
-the relationship between prosody, gesture, and language structure
Ideas for MA Theses or other research projects
