Habitus in Habitat I: Emotion and Motion

Emotion and Motion - First conference in the series Habitus in Habitat

Emotions are central to human experience and behavior. They condition our actions and are inherent in all forms of communication. It has also become widely accepted that there is no cognition without emotion, suggesting that every formation of cognitive skills and epistemological faculties, every cultural practice and any form of human communication is accompanied by specific emotional habitualizations and the formation of an emotional habitus - a set of habits involved in emotional communication.

Eine Veranstaltung des Projekts "Emotion and Motion" des Zentrums für Literaturforschung, in Kooperation mit: Berlin School of Mind and Brain (Daniel S. Margulies, Arno Villringer), Berliner Medizinhistorisches Museum der Charité (Thomas Schnalke), Association of Neuroesthetics (Alexander Abbushi)
