We are a group of sociologists and linguists interested in exploring notions of collaboration within team-work activities of naturally occurring interaction. We specialise in carrying out semi-naturalistic experiments to examine verbal and non-verbal behaviour , as well as the use of technology in a range of different work settings: music, MotoGP, application technologies.
