									<!-- Body text -->
									<p>Somaesthetics is a new interdisciplinary field of research dedicated to the study and cultivation of the soma (the living, sentient, purposive body) as our medium of sensory perception (aesthesis) and action, and also the site of our expressive self-stylization. Concerned not only with understanding but improving our experience and performance through heightened, more perceptive somatic awareness, somaesthetics involves both theory and practice. After providing an introductory sketch of the somaesthetic project by outlining its aims, genealogy, and structure, the lecture will then focus on the application of somaesthetics to the field of design in our age of digital products that some see as threatening to make the human body obsolete along with our shared sense of humanity.</p>
<p>The talk is followed by drinks in AIAS Hall.&nbsp;</p>
