摘要
随着年龄的增长,我们能否再次通过舞蹈了解自己和周围的世界,从而促进自身健康?本文记录的生活事实表明,"老年人 "并不需要学习认知自己的动作、情感倾向或周围世界;他们从一开始就通过触觉、动觉和情感体验认知了一切。然而,当今的认知神经科学专注于大脑的神经可塑性并将其理论化,却未能认识到这些经验现实。相反,对大脑和行为的研究表明,协调动力学是神经协调动力学和运动学协调动力学的决定性特征。这些动态是肉体概念、"如果-那么 "关系识别和运动思维的核心。实际上,大脑是全身神经系统的一部分。这项研究进而表明,运动的定性动态与协调动态相辅相成,不仅是日常运动的基本要素,也是舞蹈的基本要素--从运动美学的角度体验运动,成为一个有思想的身体。当默斯-坎宁安(Merce Cunningham)写道,舞蹈能让你 "在稍纵即逝的瞬间感受到生命的存在",并不适合 "不稳定的灵魂 "时,当英国作家 D. H. 劳伦斯(D. H. Lawrence)写道,"我们应该欢欣鼓舞地跳舞,因为我们是活着的,是有血有肉的,是活生生的化身宇宙的一部分 "时,他们的话激励着那些正在衰老的人们从触觉、动觉和情感上唤醒舞蹈的存在现实。
Can we again learn about ourselves and our surrounding world through dance as we age, thereby promoting our own health? This article documents facts of life showing that “older adults” do not have to learn to be cognitive of their movement, affective dispositions, or surrounding world; they have been experientially cognitive of all by way of tactility, kinesthesia, and affectivity from the beginning. Present-day cognitive neuroscience, concentrating and theorizing as it does on the brain's neuroplasticity, is however deficient in recognizing these experiential realities. Research studies on the brain and behavior, in contrast, demonstrate that coordination dynamics are the defining feature of both neurological and kinesthetic coordination dynamics. These dynamics are central to corporeal concepts, to the recognition of if–then relationships, and to thinking in movement. In effect, the brain is part of a whole-body nervous system. The study proceeds to show that the qualitative dynamics of movement that subtend coordination dynamics are basic to not only everyday movement but also to dancing—to experiencing movement kinesthetically and to being a mindful body. When Merce Cunningham writes that dance gives you that “single fleeting moment when you feel alive” and is not for “unsteady souls” and English writer D. H. Lawrence writes that “[w]e ought to dance with rapture that we are alive, and in the flesh, and part of the living incarnate cosmos,” their words are incentives to those who are aging to awaken tactilely, kinesthetically, and affectively to the existential realities of dance.
