Embodied Cosmology® In Practice
Practice-as-Research
The following works function as practice-as-research artifacts within the Embodied Cosmology® method. Inquiry in Motion documents collaborative, embodied research processes developed with Bodystormers from the University of Minnesota, where movement functions as a mode of inquiry and knowledge-generation. These works reflect Embodied Cosmology® in practice - learning, sensing, thinking, creating - while in motion.
