We invited a special guest for our week 7 — Dr. Betsy Coker.
Excitedly, friends from the Dance Department also joined for this session with IDM and ITP students!
Dancer, dance-maker, scientist, and teacher Elizabeth (Betsy) Coker introduced principles of clinical neuroscience, biomechanics, and motion capture technologies to question how we conceive of our bodies, who authors body representations in scientific research, and the empirical and creative implications of objectivity.
*Lecture followed by interactive motion capture demonstration.
