[Seminar] Is Cardiac Synchronization an aspect of the Shared Body Schema? Learning from expert musicians
Speaker: Dr. Simon Høffding , University of Southern Denmark
Abstract: «In this talk, I firstly go through the notion of the body schema as the possibility of including other objects or even subjects into our own lived body. I present phenomenological interviews with expert musicians that give us reason to believe that a dimension of their shared musical expertise consists in the construction of such a shared body schema, as a robust sense of “we-ness”. Hypothesizing that cardiac synchronization (CS) (also known as heart rate variability synchronization) might instantiate or contribute to a physiological dimension of this we-ness, a recent experiment indeed, shows that expert musicians have significantly higher CS than adepts and that this synchronization is resilient to performative challenges. Thus, I tentatively argue that CS should be considered as indexical of a shared body schema.»

OIST-KEIO SHOWCASE TALK Series 4
OIST is a private university established in 2011, under Japanese government auspices. While new, OIST has made remarkable progress by conducting research that bridges disciplines to explore new frontiers of scientific knowledge. Keio University, Japan’s first private university founded in 1858, has led Japanese academia with its tradition and innovative mindset. Both universities now come together to launch interdisciplinary collaboration at an institutional level. The “Keio-OIST Showcase Talk” series is our signature event, where researchers not only present their recent research, but can seek advice, discuss solutions, and find friends and prospective collaborators.
