What a great stimulating couple of days at #IALIC #IALIC2023. Wonderful papers and people! Here is me giving a keynote, for rethinking culture interdisciplinarily through food - thanks to all those who came (9am the morning after the social dinner - it was tough for me too 😩).
On my way to Cyprus for #IALIC #IALIC2023, honoured to be invited to speak and thrilled for such an amazing programme! It’ll be tough to choose between parallel sessions…
IALIC's conference programme is finally here. Have a look at the schedule of keynotes and parallel sessions below ⬇️
Looking forward to welcoming our keynote speakers this year: Karen Risager, Michalinos Zembylas, @profzhuhua, and @lisadami

My opening keynote at ICOM_11. Multimodality allows us to look at culture as dynamics of (non-)sharedness. And see that you can share more with somebody who doesn’t speak your language than with your Home Secretary. (Reference to current political propaganda purely accidental)
In spite of me reading for work mostly on screen these days, the excitement of holding the printed stuff in my hand is still unique. So here’s a chapter from me :-) with many thanks and congrats to the editors of this fantastic Handbook!

"Interculturality through the lenses of multimodal sign-making" May, 12, 2023 12:00 PM Cairo Time (GMT+3)

ALT Talk as part of the Language and Communication Research Lab Webinar Series. In this talk, I will sketch a social semiotic perspective onto culture and interculturality (Adami, 2023), which accounts for recent conceptualisations in cultural anthropology, and tries to tackle the issue of what is (inter)cultural in multimodal sign-making. I will demonstrate the application of such a perspective through an analysis of participants’ sign-making in a gameplay video, threading between sharedness and non-sharedness (Toh, Fei and Adami, 2023). The analysis shows the potentials of adopting a semiotic rather than linguistic perspective on culture and interculturality, and of looking at patterns of sharedness and non-sharedness as expressed multimodally in any instance of communication, rather than predefining as intercultural a context on the basis of the participants’ mother tongues, ethnicities or nationalities.

The next #Multimodality talk will be on Fri, March 3 (12:00–13:30 GMT). We will have Professor @adamjaworski100 to talk about "Sculptural Place Names: Between Elitism and Egalitarianism in Gentrified Urban Spaces". Read the abstract and register via eventbrite.com/e/adam-jawors…
It’s out! I’m really thrilled as it’s been a great collaborative work! The chapters offer different takes on interculturality and multimodality. I like to see it as the starting of a very much needed dialogue, particularly in today’s divided world
