I'm Not Here: Embodied Methods for Ecological Selfhood

这个研究项目的目的是开发和阐明触发第一手的方法，生态自我的身体经验。我的方法是实践作为研究，采用武藤舞蹈和自我反思的现象学方法，并与观众，研讨会参与者和其他艺术家进行访谈。研究背景包括人类世文化理论，武藤，以及关于新自由主义消费资本主义动态的社会学理论，因为它涉及到自我的模型。消费者模型将与佛教和万物有灵论中的生态精明实践进行对比，以显示消费者自我的偶然性及其对生态危机时期的不适应。

The aim of this research project is to develop and articulate methods for triggering first-hand, somatic experiences of ecological selfhood. My methodology is Practice as Research, employing Butoh dance and phenomenological methods of self-reflection and interviews with audiences, workshop participants and other artists. The research context encompasses Anthropocene cultural theory, Butoh, and sociological theory on the dynamics of neoliberal consumer capitalism as it pertains to models of selfhood. The consumer model will be contrasted with ecologically astute practices found in Buddhism and animistic practices to show the contingency of consumer selfhood and its poor fit for times of ecological crisis.
