Gesture is pervasive in communication, this “visible action as utterance” offers stand-alone meaning that are recognized within a culture, e.g., “I got my eyes on you sign, or bye bye sign, or surprise look, or sigh of exasperation.” Gesture accompanies speech, for instance we point to things we are referencing during speech, and we depict actions that we are describing-“the cat is this big” and we cup our hands as a measure of size. It also allows us to co-ordinate turns, taking among many other roles.
This course (ANTH 331F) focuses on gestures, what it is, how it is used, how it is studied, what role it plays in conversation, thinking, and information processing, and what its cultural variations and underpinning are? Dr. Agwuele welcomes visitors to this course to explore the Systems Thinking lens of communication and understanding the role it plays in society.

All community members are invited to attend and celebrate their authentic self.
The goal for this event is to initiate a dialogue within the Bobcat and greater San Marcos community—one that subsequently results in students, faculty, and staff challenging their previously formed assumptions and reshaping the ways of thinking—thus helping to strengthen the culture of inclusion and respect at Texas State.

Featuring a Q&A with Roberto Rios and Walley Films. Parking information HERE.
About the artist:
Born in 1941, Rios grew up in San Antonio. His love for art developed at his local public library where he read about art history and taught himself to paint by example. In his paintings, one finds references to the art seen in books, but in a fantastical style all his own. The first retrospective dedicated to this important artist, Mind Windows features work from his time as a founding member of Con Safo, a San Antonio-based group that helped to define the Chicano Art movement; through to his work as a well-known muralist and as a Medical Scientific Illustrator for publications produced by Brooke Army Medical Center in San Antonio. Rios retired to pursue his faith—eventually becoming a Catholic Deacon in 2008—and continues to paint to this day. Click here for more information

Gesture is pervasive in communication, this “visible action as utterance” offers stand-alone meaning that are recognized within a culture, e.g., “I got my eyes on you sign, or bye bye sign, or surprise look, or sigh of exasperation.” Gesture accompanies speech, for instance we point to things we are referencing during speech, and we depict actions that we are describing-“the cat is this big” and we cup our hands as a measure of size. It also allows us to co-ordinate turns, taking among many other roles.

✯ About Starred Events
A few events each year are included in the Common Experience as part of annual or ongoing partnerships that are not necessarily related to the theme. These events are recognized as key opportunities for common experiences that build community; they are designated with a Texas State star in their titles.
