Face to face conversation necessarily involves a great deal of bodily movement beyond that required for speaking. We seek to understand the systematic variation of such para-linguistic activity as a function of the ebb and flow of conversation. Gaze and blinking in dyadic conversation are examined, along with their relation to speech turn. Eight pairs provide 15 minutes of conversation each, including five participants who partake in two dyads each. This facilitates a thorough examination of the rich covariation of gaze and blinking both within an individual and as a function of the dyad. Many aspects of systematic variation are found to be relatively invariant within the individual, but individuals display large qualitative differences, one from the other.
