TRR 318 - Monitoring the understanding of explanations (Subproject A02)
When something is being explained to someone, the explainee signals their understanding – or lack thereof – to the explainer with verbal expressions and other non-verbal means of communication, such as gestures and facial expressions.

Cityrama - Straße als Atelier I-II
Wir bewegen uns täglich durch Straßen, flanieren und fahren auf ihr, überqueren sie oder tippen sie in Google Maps. Straßen, so scheint es, sind einfach da.
