Roman Matvienko

Photo I am a PhD student in Sociology at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

I do a video-based ethnomethodological study of embodied interaction in team sports. My current research focuses on action projection in playing association football, where it enables players not only to support the actions of their teammates, but also to destroy the efforts of the opposition.
