This book is based on a two-day symposium at the Paris Institute of
Advanced Study titled "space-time geometries and movement in the
brain and the arts". It includes over 20 chapters written by the
leading scientists and artists who presented their related research
studies at the symposium and includes six sections; the first three
focus on space-time geometries in perception, action and memory
while the last three focus on specific artistic domains: drawing
and painting, dance, music, digital arts and robotics. The book is
accompanied by a dedicated webpage including related images and
videos. There is an ever-growing interest in the topics covered by
this book. Space and time are of fundamental importance for our
understanding of human perception, action, memory and cognition,
and are entities which are equally important in physics, biology,
neuroscience and psychology. Highly prominent scientists and
mathematicians have expressed their belief that our bodies and
minds shape the ways we perceive space and time and the physical
laws we formulate. Understanding how the brain perceives motion and
generates -bodily movements is of great significance. There is also
growing interest in studying how space, time and movement subserve
artistic creations in different artistic modalities (e.g., fine
arts, digital and performing arts and music). This interest is
inspired by the idea that artists make intuitive use of the
principles and simplifying strategies used by the brain in movement
generation and perception. Building upon new understanding of the
spatio-temporal geometries subserving movement generation and
perception by the brain we can start exploring how artists make use
of such neuro --geometrical and neuro-dynamic representations in
order to express artistic concepts and emotionally affect the human
observers and listeners. Scientists have also started formulating
new ideas of how aesthetic judgements emerge from the principles
and brain mechanisms subserving motor control and motion
perception. Covering novel and multidisciplinary topics, this
advanced book will be of interest to neuroscientists, behavioral
scientists, artificial intelligence and robotics experts, students
and artists.
