La modelización usando corporeización en la Enseñanza de las Ciencias
2017
En este trabajo proponemos la corporeización como herramienta didáctica para enseñar modelos y conceptos en diferentes conceptos básicos de la física y la química que aparecen a lo largo de cursos generales y específicos de ciencia. Presentamos una propuesta de diez modelizaciones con corporeización de fenómenos a escala microscópica y macroscópica y mostramos los resultados de un análisis cualitativo de un proceso de corporeización según el esquema de trabajo general. Los resultados muestran la sencillez con la que se discuten conceptos aparentemente complejos y cómo se alcanza la comprensión de la idea aceptada científicamente a partir de la propia modelización de los alumnos. Estos resul…

Coordinated Interpersonal Behaviour in Collective Dance Improvisation: The Aesthetics of Kinaesthetic Togetherness
2018
International audience; Collective dance improvisation (e.g., traditional and social dancing, contact improvisation) is a participatory, relational and embodied art form which eschews standard concepts in aesthetics. We present our ongoing research into the mechanisms underlying the lived experience of "togetherness" associated with such practices. Togetherness in collective dance improvisation is kinaesthetic (based on movement and its perception), and so can be simultaneously addressed from the perspective of the performers and the spectators, and be measured. We utilise these multiple levels of description: the first-person, phenomenological level of personal experiences, the third-perso…

La polarità destra-sinistra e le direzioni cardinali: lingua, corpo e cultura
2021
Questo lavoro indaga un’antica questione relativa all’origine e all’uso dei termini ‘destra’ e ‘sinistra’ nelle lingue indoeuropee. Se sul piano fonetico e morfologico si ricostruiscono con facilità le radici comuni da cui derivano entrambi i termini nelle diverse lingue della stessa famiglia, sul piano della ricostruzione semantica e culturale emergono contraddizioni a tutt’oggi non spiegate. Qui si cerca di interpretare i dati sulla base non solo degli esiti morfologici della comparazione lessicale, ma anche del contesto storico e culturale ricostruito alla luce delle nuove prospettive offerte sia dalla linguistica tipologica sia dalla linguistica cognitiva. L’indagine si concentra in par…
Embodiment e percezione dello spazio alle origini della cultura indoeuropea
2018
La costruzione dell’identità scaturisce dall’esperienza corporea e dalla sua concreta rappresentazione nello spazio. Lo studio degli universali del linguaggio in relazione ai sistemi di coordinate spaziali utilizzati nelle lingue del mondo ha recentemente attirato l'attenzione della ricerca nell’ambito non solo linguistico, ma anche delle neuroscienze (Diessel 2013: 687; Kemmerer 2010). In particolare, la letteratura esistente sulla tipologia delle espressioni spaziali è tradizionalmente basata sull’assunto che il sistema di riferimento deittico o egocentrico in uso nelle lingue europee moderne costituisca un universale linguistico e culturale. Anche la tradizione filosofica, da Kant (1768)…
Estudio del embodiment y las alteraciones de la integración multisensorial corporal y su papel en la psicopatología de los trastornos de la conducta …
2016
En los últimos años, ha habido un interés renovado sobre los estudios del cuerpo, fundamentalmente a través de las teorías del embodiment. Entre sus muchas definiciones, la experiencia del embodiment se describe específicamente como el sentido mediante el cual un individuo se localiza dentro de sus límites físicos de su propio cuerpo. Ese sentido de localización se complementa con el de auto-reconocimiento y propiedad corporal, que se conforman desde la integración de diversas señales sensoriales del cuerpo (ej., visión, tacto, propiocepción, etc.), junto con el sentido de la agencia del cuerpo, es decir, la conciencia subjetiva de que nosotros somos quienes ejecutamos y controlamos las acc…
A New, Better BET: Rescuing and Revising Basic Emotion Theory
2018
Basic Emotion Theory, or BET, has dominated the affective sciences for decades (Ekman, 1972, 1992, 1999; Ekman and Davidson, 1994; Griffiths, 2013; Scarantino and Griffiths, 2011). It has been highly influential, driving a number of empirical lines of research (e.g., in the context of facial expression detection, neuroimaging studies and evolutionary psychology). Nevertheless, BET has been criticized by philosophers, leading to calls for it to be jettisoned entirely (Colombetti, 2014; Hufendiek, 2016). This paper defuses those criticisms. In addition, it shows that we have good reason to retain BET. Finally, it reviews and puts to rest worries that BET's commitment to affect programs render…
Sing with the Telenoid
2012
We introduce a novel research proposal project aimed to build a robotic setup in which the Telenoid learns to improvise jazz singing in a duet with a human singer. In the proposed application, the Telenoid acts in teleoperated mode during the learning phase, while it becomes more and more autonomous during the working phase. A goal of the research is to investigate the essence of human communication which is based on gestures and prosody. We will employ an architecture for imitation learning that incrementally learns from demonstrations sequences of internal model activations, based on the idea of coupled forward- inverse internal models for representing musical phrases and the body sequenc…
Bodies, emotions and tourism: a study of Costa Cruises commercials
2013
Nowadays, tourism industry proposes different opportunities to live a vacation where the body is the main interest and the central focus of experience. Each form of tourism shows a particular universe of representation of the body and a corresponding emotional language. In this context, where bodies and spaces are associated and reciprocally constructed as symbolic languages for the benefit of the tourist’s extraordinary experience, cruise tourism is an interesting case in point to analyze above all because on cruises, people use the space of the ship in different ways and, at the same time, following general corporeal and spatial schemes. These uses and schemes reflect a particular concept…
