Dance is a form of Neural relaxation and enhance the neural plasticity-longivity of our life. Our cultural ways teaches these. But in urban centers our sedentary life style has drastically reduced this charaters among us. therefore we are sedentary life stlye diseases. Dance in the rythemic ways enhance our entire body. It is wounder area to explore further befor the anthropologists. I am working with some neurological diseases and trying to evolve the Neurological anthropology or Anthropology of Neurons emitatingthe cultutre as felt by the Brain cells coupled with the environment interactions-become culture of the particular community of people.

Very interesting, will read the paper soon. The improv/choreography diagram reminded me somehow of a couple of pages from my thesis, pages 66-67 in the Scribd posting. I'm no scientist though, but the idea of an embodied approach to improvisation is fascinating to me. I think this paper will definitely inspire future performances. I'm quite focused on the tension of improvising within a set, structured system.
