One key component in the accomplishment of intersubjectivity and intercorporeality (Meyer, Streeck, & Jordan, 2017) is participants use of embodied work in order to establish head and facial orientation towards each other (Goodwin, 1980; Mondada, 2009). But what happens when people are using technology and it somehow complicates the possibility of face-to-face interaction? In this presentation we show how participants use the affordances of the technology and the spatial layout to achieve joint attention, especially by manipulating the technology and being mobile (cf. Arminen, Licoppe, & Spagnolli, 2016). The presentation builds on data from video-mediated interactions where participants moves the camera and turns the screen; interactions with a telepresence robot which a doctor can control and moves; and interactions with a robot (Pepper) where humans orient towards the robot’s “face”. We discuss the orderly functions of face-to-face orientation as a human fundamental (Levinas, 1979) that is accomplished by creatively reconfigurering aspects of the setting, the social organization and by using the affordances of the technology and other material structures. The presentation contributes to EMCA studies of technology-in-flux by highlightning mobility features, technology affordances and co-operative human creativity.
