The project brings together an interdisciplinary group of researchers with the aim of evaluating whether a description of dance discourse informed by multimodal discourse analysis and visualised through enriched videos can capture the way dance communicates through a flow of choreographed sequences in space, and whether this description can support the interpretative process of nonexpert audiences. The theoretical framework of the research project is based on an extended dynamic theory called segmented discourse representation theory (SDRT) and on the Functional Grammar of Dance Movement created by Project Investigator Maiorani. Project's long-term goal is to develop an interdisciplinary area of research focusing on movement-based communication that can extend beyond the study of dance to other movement-based forms of communication and performance and foster the creation of partnerships between the academia and the institutions that host and promote such disciplines.</p> Content content-390942 Fri, 06 Mar 2026 01:23:33 +0100 https://www.lboro.ac.uk/subjects/communication-media/staff/arianna-maiorani/ Principal Investigator School of Social Sciences and Humanities Arianna Maiorani is Reader in Linguistics and Multimodality in the School of Social Sciences and Humanities at Loughborough University, UK, and a former professional ballet dancer, teacher and choreographer. Her research focuses on Multimodal Semiotics, Multimodal Discourse Analysis and the application of the Systemic Functional Linguistics and Social Semiotics frameworks to the study of socio-cultural phenomena and multimodal communication.
