SYMPOSIUM: Transcribing Now: Means and Meanings
in the Transcription of Spoken Interaction
Sunday, May 15 / 8:00 AM-5:00 PM / Free
McCune Conference Room, 6020 HSSB, 6th floor
Researchers from a broad range of fields find themselves
compelled to (re)consider the nature of their relationship
to a common eviden-tiary practice: the transcription
of recordings of naturally occurring spoken interaction.
This workshop brings together scholars from an interdisciplinary
range of perspectives to take stock of some of the key
cross-cutting issues in transcription (theory and practice,
representation and politics) that continue to have such
important, if often unnoticed, implications for how
we come to an understanding of the phenomena which are
to be discovered in spoken interaction. For conference
