“…These studies have primarily addressed the character of projection in conversational interaction and make an important contribution to our understanding of the ways in which particular activities and their sequential organization, ranging from paired actions through to more extended packages of activity, are accomplished in and through talk and interaction (Dausendschoön-Gay & Krafft, 2009;Kendrick & Torreira, 2014;Kim & Cho, 2017;Luke et al, 2012). These studies are complemented by the long-standing interest in the ways in which visible conduct-including gesture, gaze, and comportment-can serve with, and alongside, matters of syntax, semantics, prosody, and the like to enable projection and the coordination of particular actions and sequences of action (see, for example, Debreslioska et al, 2013;Ford et al, 2012;Hanna & Brennan, 2007;Kidwell, 2009;Kinsbourne & Jordan, 2009;Oshima & Streeck, 2015;Roseano et al, 2016;Streeck, 1995;Streeck & Jordan, 2009). Projection and the coproduction of specialized forms of institutional activity-forms of activity that often rely on, if not primarily consist of, embodied action(s)-have received less attention, and yet the practices and procedures on which they rely are critical to the anticipation, preparation, and coordination of more specialized tasks and activities (see, for example, Goodwin, 2017;Heath & Luff, 2000;Llewellyn & Hindmarsh, 2010).…”
