Arts Based Learning Labs | 2015-2016

Invitation: 

Closed, Project Archived

​ ​

Project: Arts Based Learning Labs focus on the question, "What can the body know and why does it matter?"  Participants to explore paralinguistics, emotions, and gestures as pathways to understanding.

• What is the role of the body in how we construct knowledge? 

• How can the body uncover assumptions that drive our perceptions?

• How can the body relate to affective states and how they influence our discourse, reasoning, and understanding?

• How might noticing our bodies reveal power structures existing below the surface that influence our experience?

• How does the body signal when we are most and least engaged?
