This conversation engages the experience of ecosomatic practice to open up the door to speak of place, land, sensing, with-ness and spaciousness as multiple embodied relations that are not only individualized and present but also communal and cross-generational.

Authors, artists and educators Raffaele Rufo (PhD), Jessica Cudney and Michelle Rozek engage in a living dialogue within the Ecosomatic Conversations Series, hosted by the Centre for Interdisciplinary Performative Arts (Birmingham City University) in collaboration with Birmingham Dance Network.

In the conversation the presenters play the reciprocal role as facilitators of each other’s felt-thinking challenging the standard academic model of answering the questions asked by the moderator individually as part of a panel.
