How do various semiotic modes contribute to this effect?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The study was based on transcripts and video recordings of six host-moderated events from the 2023 and 2024 editions of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/slaskifestiwalnauki.pl\/\">Silesian Science Festival Katowice<\/a><\/strong> (\u015al\u0105ski Festiwal Nauki Katowice), made available to online audiences via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@slaskifestiwalnaukikatowice\">Festival\u2019s YouTube channel<\/a>. The dataset was selected based on event type (dialogue-based), host (three science journalists, each moderating two events), disciplinary diversity (chemistry, applied arts, medical sciences, economic geography, computer sciences, biology), and time frame. The analysis focused on <strong>rhetorical goals<\/strong>, <strong>pragmatic strategies<\/strong>, and (to a limited extent) <strong>multimodal resources<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The findings show that the host\u2019s rhetorical work focuses on structuring the event, supporting the guest, ensuring audience understanding, creating rapport by introducing familiar context, and building positive attitudes towards science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the guest remains the primary epistemic authority, the hosts act as facilitators who shape what is communicated and how it is conveyed. They also demonstrate flexibility in responding to the complexity of the topic, the guest\u2019s communication style, and challenges in the interaction, for example, when perspectives or values need to be negotiated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The findings also suggest that non-verbal modes help frame the event as a natural conversation. These modes are consistently oriented towards the guest, reinforcing their role as the main source of knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the InterGedi2026 conference in Zaragoza, Krystyna Warcha\u0142 presented the results of a case study on recontextualisation processes in video-recorded festival science shows.
