The collection of acts of IBOCreation done by an Animal (including Person) arranging its limbs or other body parts (and whatever objects the limbs might be holding) in some meaningful configuration (static or dynamic). Vocal IBTGenerations are not considered to be gestures (see MakingAnOralSound for this), but they might be done in conjunction with gestures. NB: MakingAGesture is NOT a subcollection of NonVerbalCommunicating; at most, an instance of MakingAGesture is only half of a communication event. And someone can make a gesture while alone, without using it for communication. Thus, only some gestures are subEvents of NonVerbalCommunicating. (But note that MakingAGesture IS a subcollection of IBTGeneration_Original (q.v.), since every gesture encodes information, whether or not it is used for communication in a particular instance.)
