A teleconferencing method for a teleconferencing device (1), the device combining multiple individuals (21, 22, 23, 24) in different location (11, 12, 13) over a communication network (31), the device comprising at least one sensor (3, 4, 5) per location and at least one audio and/or visual playback means (2) per location, the teleconferencing method comprising the following steps: assigning multiple interaction counters (41, 42, 43, 44) to each of the individuals (21, 22, 23, 24) participating in the teleconference, each interaction counter (41, 42, 43, 44) characterizing interactions (70) between a specific individual and a third-party individual; estimating the interactions (70) between the specific individual and the third-party individual based on a measurement of the sensors (3, 4, 5) of the specific individual's location or the third-party individual's location; altering a value of the interaction counter (41, 42, 43, 44) corresponding to the interaction (70) between the specific individual and the third-party individual resulting from the step of estimating the interactions, and saving the value of the interaction counter (41, 42, 43, 44); selecting the data streams (66, 67, 68) to be presented to each individual (21, 22, 23, 24) participating in the conference, the data stream presented to a specific individual being related to at least one third-party individual and selected based on the values of the interaction counters (41, 42, 43, 44) in comparison to a threshold defined by the specific individual; and presenting the data flow to each individual participating in the teleconference by way of the audio and/or visual playback means (2).
