Drawing on earlier work by Ebert and Ebert (2014), we argue that co-speech gestures contribute non-at-issue information by default (cf. Schlenker, 2018), flesh out their proposal that gestural content can be shifted via demonstratives (i.e. demonstratives function as dimension shifters from the non-at-issue to the at-issue dimension), and present experimental validation for this claim.
