The central question explored in this volume is: How is humor multimodally produced, perceived, responded to, and negotiated? To this end, it offers a panorama of linguistic research on multimodal and interactional humor, based on different theoretical frameworks, corpora, and methodologies. Humor is considered as an activity that is interactionally achieved, regardless of whether the interaction in which it is embedded is face-to-face, computer-mediated, with a human or a robot, oral or written. The aim is to analyze both the linguistic resources of the participants (such as their lexicon, prosody, gestures, gazes, or smiles) and the semiotic resources that social networks and instant messaging platforms offer them (such as memes, gifs, or emojis)

the analysis of language and speech is based on the study of a variety of areas ranging from phonetic to pragmatic, while taking into account the way in which they are expressed. For modern languages, while each area has a certain level of autonomy, it can only be explained in its interaction with others: linguistic information is the product of the convergence of multiple sources of information, which is also constrained by the environment in which the message was produced. Language analysis can therefore only be carried out taking into account the different ways in which information is expressed. However, to date, there is no integrated theory dealing with information from the different levels of the language chain, which is by its very nature a multi-modal sensory content. Although many annotation projects have developed in recent years, problems remain: annotated multimodal resources are hardly available for French; annotation standards do not fully meet needs and tools are not adapted. However, the development of this type of resources is useful in several respects, including the description of the information in each of the areas and their interactions. We present the Corpus of Interactional Data (CID), an audio and video corpus with 8 hours of dilogary in French, the annotations under consideration (phonetically, prosodic, morphosyntactical, mimo-gestual) and their state of implementation. ; L'analyse du langage et de la parole repose sur l'étude de domaines variés allant de la phonétique à la pragmatique, tout en prenant en compte les modalités de leur expression. Pour la linguistique moderne, si chaque domaine dispose d'un certain niveau d'autonomie, il ne peut être expliqué que dans son interaction avec les autres : l'information linguistique est le produit de la convergence de multiples sources d'information, information aussi contrainte par l'environnement où le message a été produit. L'analyse linguistique ne peut donc se faire qu'en tenant compte des différentes modalités d'expression de ...
