“…The interaction space, in this context, (e.g., the conference with its booths or the online interpreting platform) needs to be created before the verbal interaction can begin. Following Schmitt and Deppermann (2007), the space is not only a condition for the interaction but also a result of the initial interaction, created during interaction (see also Hausendorf et al, 2012). All participants in the interaction being physically present at one physical location forms a different basis for the communication situation from that in cases where one or more of the people involved are not on-site but connected via video or telephone with their bodies only virtually present.…”

This article sheds light on how conference interpreting practice has changed since the beginning of the pandemic in Austria by drawing on the sociological concepts “body” and “space” as analytical and conceptual categories, among others shaped by Lindemann and Lindemann and Schünemann. The results of this study yield insights into the different modes of spatial organisation for conference interpreting during the pandemic; the ways these different organisational settings impacted cooperation among interpreters; and the interpreters’ perceptions of these reconfigurations in space and bodily presence. The data, obtained through an online survey and interviews with in total nine conference interpreters in Austria, show that a range of organisational settings is possible when working (completely or partly) remote, all entailing their individual particularities. Among the observed settings were conferences held on-site with strict anti-COVID measures; “hybrid” settings where interpreters worked on-site with speakers joining online or vice versa; and remote interpreting assignments. In remote assignments, more communication was necessary before the conference, for example, to discuss handovers. Additional communication tools were resorted to, and interpreters preferred working together in one physical place, for example, to facilitate cooperation. However, they also saw advantages in remote assignments.

“…Institutional architectures ("churches", "hospitals", "university buildings", "court rooms", etc.) are abuzz with participation cues of this kind so that situating oneself in such a space already implies social positioning in terms of rights and duties (Hausendorf and Schmitt 2018).…”

Through a variety of empirical studies, this volume offers fresh insights into the manner in which different forms of communicative action transform urban space. With attention to the methodological questions that arise from the attempt to study such changes empirically, it offers new theoretical foundations for understanding the social construction and reconstruction of spaces through communicative action. Seeing communicative action as the basic element in the social construction of reality and conceptualizing communication not only in terms of the use of language and texts, but as involving any kind of objectification, such as technologies, bodies and nonverbal signs, it considers the roles of both direct and mediatized (or digitized) communication. An examination of the conceptualization of the communicative (re-)construction of spaces and the means by which this change might be empirically investigated, this book demonstrates the fruitfulness of the notion of refiguration as a means by which to understand the transformation of contemporary societies. As such, it will appeal to sociologists, social theorists, and geographers with interests in social construction and urban space.

“…Dazu gehören nicht nur, aber insbesondere die Wahrnehmung und Nutzung des Raumes unter Anwesenden, so dass der "Interaktionsraum" als empirischer Gegenstand zuerst wiederentdeckt werden musste (vgl. dazu Mondada 2007; und den Rückblick beiHausendorf & Schmitt 2018). Solange also, mit Bezug auf unser Thema, in einer Vorlesung nicht auch explizit oder implizit vom Hörsaal die Rede war, spielte er für die Analyse allenfalls als Aspekt des situativen Kon-Es geht bei diesem Neuansatz darum, wie konkrete architektonische Erscheinungsformen eines Raumes Interaktionsereignisse in diesem Raum zwar nicht vorherbestimmen, aber sehr wohl vorstrukturieren, d. h. möglich und wahrscheinlich machen können (i.

The present paper is concerned with the lecture hall as the natural home of lecturing. We will focus on constructed, designed and equipped space as a material and communicative manifestation of science which fundamentally contributes to the multimodal practice of lecturing. Taking an interactionist point of view, we start off with introducing our concept of architecture-for-interaction which aims at spatial built-in features as a resource for social interaction, namely for situational anchoring among those present. In a second step, we identify key architectural elements of the lecture hall as material sediments of communicative problems connected with the social practice of lecturing. In doing so, we will also give a high-level overview of the historical development of the lecture hall (and its precursors) since the Middle Ages and the Early Modern Age. Turning to current data from lecturing in times of the pandemic, we will then deal with so called „ghost lectures“ behind closed doors. This current development brings out a refiguration process due to which the lecture hall undergoes a change from the classical auditorium with copresent participants to a multi-media hub allowing for tele-present participants.
