• Title:
  From Gesture to Theatricality: On Enounciation and the Art of Being Visible
• Creator:
  Brandt, Per Aage
• Description:
  The human motor system is built into its physical surroundings, whether natural or artificial, by the morphological predisposition of its basic muscular attunement to the spatial world of places, things, and beings: its gestures, in the largest sense of this term. Essential schemas of our imaginative mind are grounded in motor patterns reinforced through interaction with this spatial world. Locomotion yields one important pattern of this variety (aspects of ‘going’ from place to place), besides instrumental gestures (aspects of our manipulation of things, of our constructing, changing, moving or destroying them) and immediate symptomatic gestures of mental activity and affective state (such as ‘hesitation’ and ‘perplexity’); special attention must of course be paid to the realm of expressive gestures (aspects of ‘showing’ meanings to others), including those that accompany language or constitute a language in its own right.
