HOW TO FLIRT IN CONFERENCE CALLS

People in shady bedrooms, chilling in their couches, looking empty - this is the current perspective on most of the strangers we meet at moment. How can we bring flirting into Zoom, Jitsi and Skype? In this workshop we will learn how to show and attract sympathy in conference calls. With flattering lighting and positioning in front of the screen, we create an auspicious atmosphere that gets us and our counterparts “in the mood” and practice putting ourselves in the limelight: How can we send inviting glances through the network despite the unfavorable camera-screen configuration? How can bodily resonance be generated through simultaneous movements and postural echoes despite spatial separation? And how does it affect me when my interlocutor is affectionate to his/her coffee cup? One thing is for sure: It's virtually getting hot in here! But don't worry: we will also use effective and humorous exit strategies to prepare for those cases in which we need a cool down.
