CNX 166 - The Dance of Body and Earth

Description
What is the relationship between our bodies and our terrestrial environment? What role does planetary awareness play in our thoughts and actions? How do we cultivate a planetary awareness in the face of increasing technological engagements that distract us from physical, earthly experience? How do we perceive the body/Earth awareness and what are the cultural influences that shape this understanding? This course will investigate these questions (and more) through the study of works by performing and visual artists, philosophers, and scientists. Classes will involve close readings, discussion, writing, and movement explorations of class topics.
