It begins with a theoretical overview and review of existing literature on the primary approaches to movement-based communication, particularly dance, which form the foundation of kinesemiotics as a field of study. It reaffirms previous work that established dance as a form of embodied communication, as it encompasses a wide range of semiotic styles and forms shared by communities of speakers. In collaboration with the English National Ballet, Maiorani employs the genre of ballet as a means through which to understand and analyze some of the key concepts of kinesemiotics, mainly that of space as a semiotic dimension and motivated movement, or movement with meaning. Supported by automated movement recognition tools from the fields of bio-robotics engineering and computer science, Maiorani argues for ballet's capacity, when movements are projected into meaningful space, to extend beyond sequences of physical movements to become a meaning-making practice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKinesemiotics advances interdisciplinary research in the fields of social semiotics, media and communication, multimodality, linguistics, and performance studies and will be of particular interest to students and scholars in these areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 229 x 152 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780367641009\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arianna Maiorani","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44104616673530,"sku":"9780367641009","price":43.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_4b05e907-1ecf-4d30-b230-aa51a4cab9e5.jpg?v=1654416981","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/kinesemiotics-modelling-how-choreographed-movement-means-in-space-9780367641009","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
