PRIMARY_TRACK track
Action function.Beat
A repetitive, recurrent flicking or striking movement accentuating points in time, illustrating structural or rhythmic aspects of co-occurring speech (subtype of illustrator). A beat does not illustrate semantic content but rather a structure or rhythm (e.g. in speech). A beat does not have a particularly defined form configuration (can even be a combination of form configurations that is repeated) but it is kept unchanged. The number of beats should clearly be visible and therefore easy to count (min 2). A prototypical example of beating movement is what a conductor does in an orchestra.
