Hey! You just clicked on me!
Congratulations! You have found the secret page of this website where you can get
even more info about me! (Yay!)
My biggest fear is having
nothing left to read.
I have been producing films for
almost 15 years. These include
short films, commercials, and theater and
music recordings.
I have won several national and international film
awards with my films.
More info can be found on my film website
www.selonfischer.de (it's in German, though).
<-You can find a recent short film (04 min.) here.
I play electric guitar (good),
guitar (okay), bass guitar (rudimentary),
and cello (unworldly).
From time to time I play in bands and perform,
but at the moment I play mostly for my daughter.
I like to listen to (melodic death) metal
or classical music.

Interpersonal Communication Research
In
my
current
research,
I
investigate
conflict
in
interpersonal communication
.
I
explore
disagreements
and
disalignments
in
multimodal
face-to-face
interaction
and
examine
incivility
and
reactance
in online communication
.
Furthermore,
I
engage
in
science
communication
and
ask
myself
how
scientific
findings
can
be
presented
to
the
public
in
a meaningful way.
Find me and my research on:
Overcoming
Blanking:
Verbal
and
Visual
Features
of
Prompting in Theatre Rehearsals
In: Human Studies, 2023
https://doi.org/10.1007/s10746-023-09670-w
In
theatre
rehearsals,
actors
can
occasionally
be
seen
getting
stuck
in
the
play
text,
which
is
called
blanking.
To
overcome
such
textual
difculties
and
continue
with
the
given
text,
a
prompter
can
verbalize
the
line
in
question,
thus
contributing
to
an
actor’s
word
search
by
prompting.
The
paper
focuses
on
interactional
practices
by
which
prompters
and
actors
interactionally
resolve
blanking
situations.
This
study’s
data
comprises
a
case
collection
of
67
prompting
situations,
which
are
taken
from
a
200-h
video
corpus
of
a
rehearsal
process
at
a
professional
theatre.
These
cases
demonstrate
how
theatre
professionals
organize
prompting
situations
and
how
they
negotiate/sanction
prompting
actions
such
as
when
there
was
no
blanking
but
a
dramatic
pause
or
when
the
dramatic
performance
is
interrupted
due
to
a
missing
prompt.
In
addition
to
the
audiovisual
recordings,
eye
tracking
data
of
the
person
prompting
is
also
used
to
describe
the
coordination
of
the
visual
resources
in
the
context
of
multimodal
interaction
analysis.
The
analysis
suggests
that
prompting
and
blanking
persons
interactively
resolve
blankings
with
the
help of verbal and visual markers.
