The point of video meetings and "who goes next" is valid. Have actually had the exact issue. Simple fix could be to order the faces the same way on everybody's screen. If I'm have one-to-one meeting, I prefer to site face-to-face with other person. Of course with multiple participants this is not possible. Wouldn't it be an example of "bad skeumorphism" if the video conferencing would take these real-life limitations…

Yes, you’re certainly right about that. I often find that the gallery view in Zoom is the best possible interface. And the limitations of real life might not be better on a screen. But I’m still left wondering...isn’t something more creative possible here?

Very interesting research domain, on the one hand computers are so powerful because they can decouple us from our spatial reality, on the other hand we need the spatiality to be able to navigate the computational structures. If you are interested in this kind of stuff definitely also research Embodied Cognition theory.

Very interested. Can you recommend any seminal works?
