Sydney Ideas Talk | Somaesthetics and Design - Professor Shusterman 1:08:16
Somaesthetics is a new interdisciplinary field of research dedicated to the study and cultivation of the soma (the living, sentient, purposive body) as our medium of sensory perception (aesthesis) and action.
This Thursday Night Lecture explores the application of somaesthetics to the fields of art and design, focusing particularly on architecture and on human-computer interactive design.
