Recognising silence as a disappearing ontological value, there is grief around our loss, but there is also a greater desire for opportunities to experience silence in its various diverse forms.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book explores the critical dynamics of silence within choreography, performance and composition, comprising a series of conversations with researchers and practitioners, including choreographer Rosemary Lee, architect Richard Dougherty, architectural historian Pérez-Gómez, Natural Horn player Isaac Shieh, neuroscientist Tony Steffert and drummer and aerialist Jonny Leitch.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e These conversations:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - question what has been silenced through the immobilisation of our bodies through movement-saving technologies;\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - discover points of convergence through silence in seemingly separate and unrelated physical, conceptual and philosophical spaces;\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e - examine neglected intelligence and marginalised ways of knowing of gesture and movement\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Ultimately, we come to see how dance, embodied modes of inquiry and corporeal-based understandings within socio-cultural and ecological contexts can propose pathways in the absence of sound.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55634666193240,"sku":"9781350472082","price":97.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781350472082.jpg?v=1770920133","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/dance-and-silence","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
