Kinesthetic Empathy: Concepts and Contexts


Art: Konferenz
Datum: 22.04.2010 bis 23.04.2010
Ort: Manchester
Veranstalter: The Watching Dance Project




This peer-reviewed conference will be held on 22 and 23 April 2010 and will bring together researchers and practitioners in fields including neuroscience, dance, film, music, and contemporary embodied practices, to explore the nature and role of kinesthetic empathy.


The aim of the conference is to open up dialogues between different practices and theoretical approaches. It will celebrate the growing interest in kinesthesia, empathy and kinesthetic empathy as pivotal concepts across different disciplines and media, reflecting current concern with ‘affect’ as an object of enquiry, interrogation of notions of presence, embodiment and the senses, re-examination of phenomenology, and widespread interest in neuroscientific investigation (notably in the 'mirror neuron' system).
