This edited volume explores the notion of embodied experience through a diverse range of disciplines: architecture, music, literature, performance studies, philosophy, geopolitics. In doing so, it illuminates the need to redefine the role of the human body as one of the protagonists for raising awareness of space-time issues through processing, experimentation and application of histories and theories of embodied awareness of space. Critically revisiting these spatio-temporal dialogues, this book suggests a method of linking theory, history and practice: past, present and future. The authors reinstate the significance of history and theory in creative thinking, and test their applicability in a number of different areas: theoretical and buildable architectural projects, mapping and geography, representation, and performative arts. This volume will appeal to students and scholars from architecture, art, cultural studies, landscape studies, media studies, and other disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.
