How
do
spaces
we
interact
in
resonate
with
how
we
feel
,
how
we
think
?<

The
theories
of
embodied
cognition
in
the
cognitive
sciences
argue
for
an
expansion
of
the
notion
of
“
mind
”
which
at
the
very
least
includes
the
body
,
and
more
often
includes
the
spaces
we
interact
in
.
It
is
a
powerful
idea
to
consider
that
the
way
we
experience
the
world
can
be
altered
by
the
spaces
we
inhabit
.
That
there
is
a
resonance
between
the
design
of
the
space
and
our
thoughts
,
feelings
and
dreams
.
Can
we
consider
designing
a
space
which
makes
us
more
empathetic
?
Can
virtual
spaces
mediate
a
transition
to
a
“
post
-
body
”
realm
?
This
seminar
is
a
space
to
ask
these
questions
about
how
spaces
come
to
design
us
,
and
then
in
turn
how
we
can
use
design
to
design
minds
.
We
will
examine
topics
such
as
the
science
and
philosophy
of
embodied
cognition
,
such
as
the
extended
mind
hypothesis
and
how
it
has
come
to
influence
the
field
of
human
-
computer
interactions
.
We
will
consider
how
embodiment
is
implemented
in
art
and
design
by
conducting
and
experiencing
(
i
.
e
.
go
visit
a
James
Turrell
exhibition
COVID
permitting
)
artistic
experiments
which
play
with
our
percepts
.
We
will
also
consider
the
field
of
architecture
and
its
role
in
designing
our
emotions
.
