N2 - In this paper, we study the interactional organization of an instructed object explorationamong sighted and visually impaired people (VIPs) in order to contribute tostudies of instructional activities and the observable accomplishment of haptic perception.We do this by showing the situated, interactional, and co-operative organizationof achieving object understanding. We focus on the dynamics of haptic perceptionas being reliant on instructions, while at the same time being an observableproduction that furnishes further instructions. We show the organization of visualand verbal instructions versus the touching of objects for haptic perception. Basedon ethnomethodological conversation analysis of video data, we study a VIP’s hapticactions in interaction with a professional, sighted ICT consultant who providesinstructions on what an object is and what it can do. We show how the instructionsare sequentially adjusted to make them relevant for a simultaneous, emerging explorationin which the VIP uses their hands and fingers to perceive very specific detailsof the object. We argue that achieving object understanding is accomplished in andthrough the fine-tuned coordination of haptic exploration, both as a response to verbalinstructions and also as a means of conveying perception-related actions, whichthe ICT uses to build new actions. The paper thus makes a case for instructed anddistributed haptic perception as observable in social interaction
