Morph* Talk
Embodied Thinking with Sigridur Thorgeirsdottir
Can we dissolve the binary category of body and mind? Can we create more embodied forms of knowledge? And how can such knowledge be put into practice?
Prof. Sigridur Thorgeirsdottir is a professor of philosophy at the University of Iceland. She is particularly interested in the intersection of the philosophy of embodied life and phenomenology, drawing from Nietzsche's philosophy on the body as well as feminist philosophies. Currently, Sigridur is the head of the international research project Embodied Critical Thinking and is working on a publication on the same topic. In this morph* talk with Goethe Morph* Iceland curator Arnbjörg María Danielsen, they talk about the meaning of morphing, the (re-)connection with the natural world and the inspirations we can draw from Wolfgang von Goethe.
