Playframes: how do we know we are playing?
An exploration of how we know we're playing and what happens when we don't. Playframes builds on the work of Gregory Bateson and Erving Goffman to take a deep dive into Bateson's primary question: How do we know we're playing?

The Illiterate Listener : On Music Cognition, Musicality and Methodology

Only much later in a child’s development does he make use of this ‘musical prosody’, for instance in delineating a…

Anderen waren ziek, uitgehongerd of getraumatiseerd door hun kamp- of onderduikervaringen, of door belevenissen in gevechten en bombardementen. Vandaag zouden we die slachtoffers tegemoet treden met een legertje traumapsychologen, maar in 1945 was het begrip posttrauma…
