My challenge is to extensively complicate understandings of the ‘distributed nature of embodiment, blurring lines between self/other and human/nonhuman in the production of knowledge’ (as stated in the Open Call). Rather than discrete individuals, human bodies are composites of collaborating cells (human and nonhuman), with nonhuman populations (the microbiome) comprised …

Carson Reiners

My brain is in my body. I am embodied. I move through the world, both physical and virtual, navigating the complexities of existence. I am embodied. I hold information and knowledge, either by choice or by force. I am embodied. I experience feelings swift or timeless that become the foundation …

Susan Wendell, in her book “The rejected body,” writes about how we might become able to realize that “people with disabilities have experiences, by virtue of their disabilities, which non-disabled people do not have, and which are sources of knowledge that is not directly accessible to non-disabled people” (1998, 68f) …

My practice & research F-ing Good Provocation (FGP) is an anti-racist, anti-oppressive practice centring care, empathy and accountability within the landscape of movement and dance. A lifelong journey of education, relationship and solidarity building that requires all of us to be anti-racist, anti-oppressive daily in every space we enter, hold, …

My research has always been embodied. Forgasz and McDonough (2017) define embodied learning as a “meaning-making process in which we employ our bodies to feel our way into knowing and to physically express ourselves in order to make ourselves known to others” (p. 58). While this and other definitions of …

Short video: research material by Lindsay Gianoukas, recorded in Cassino Beach, Praia do Cassino, RS, Brazil, in June 2020. Raised on the seaside of southern Brazil, the wind was her first professor. It taught the inevitable aspects of human movement: gravity, displacement, change, velocities, resistance, etcetera. A curator of human …

Learning to prepare dishes from my grandmother, I never referenced standard measures. My grandmother would say, “you need this much water”, and I gauged measures using my sense of hearing, sight, touch, and taste: listening for how intensely and for how long she held the faucet open to get the …

Take your heart, follow its traces to the sole of your feet. Can you hear its beat when walking? The practice I have been developing along the last years wants to promote a sense of anatomo-sensorial consciousness as a bodily anchor of thought, reflection and transformation. In the socio-politic-environmental context …

Laying on the forest ground, arm stretched to reach the trigger of the camera, I am facing a spring starflower. Where does my body end and where does the world begin? The shutter closes and opens rhythmically creating a timelapse. Is it collecting fragments of time, or is it fragments …

In a striking passage, Merleau-Ponty writes about a patient who, when “asked to point to a part of his body, such as his nose, only succeeds if he is allowed to grasp it. If the patient is directed to interrupt the movement before it reaches its goal, or if he …

Simon Ellis

If all knowledge is embodied, and all practices that generate and enact knowledge are embodied, then I think the question becomes, ‘How are different research practices and processes embodied differently or uniquely?’ That is, are there types of embodiment that are different by kind or degree? My hunch is that …

[Embodiment as the reimagination of mastery] As an art history student trained under the American tradition, I was taught to address subjects and narratives that are worthwhile of grand intellectual attention. We keep chasing one historical mapping after another. Naturally, the scholar is disembodied from their research, or they will …

Everything around you is finite. A cup has an edge – how else will you understand the finality of the last drop. The stage you can see, hear, touch and smell if needed. You can recognise colours, smell perfumes, distinguish fabrics, and feel the temperature. You must accept them as …

All Knowledge is Not Embodied: The Case of Embodied and Non-Embodied Artificial Intelligence In the pursuit of understanding knowledge, we find ourselves grappling with the notion of embodiment. Although it is tempting to attribute all knowledge to our bodily experiences, the rise of artificial intelligence challenges this assumption. Embodied AI …
