Corpoestados: singularities of cognition in dance

ABSTRACT

It is intended in this text to point out the specific mode of knowledge production by means of dance. In this sense, the focus will be the act of dancing as a way of elaborating concepts by which the dance artist reinvents the body and enhances his existence in the world. According to this understanding, action and cognition occur within the same time scale, and thus there is no difference between theory and practice. We propose the concept of 'corpoestados' as one of the ways of operation of this mode of knowledge, since it considers mental actions and behavioral acts as emerging processes, committed to the various contexts in which they are inserted.
