Habitus in Habitat II - Other Sides of Cognition

Second conference in the series from November 19 until November 21

By bringing the disciplines of the sciences and the humanities together, the series’s second conference will address the other sides of cognition, that is, those aspects not yet focused on as such by brain research – such as 'twilight' or scansion phenomena of consciousness, states of boredom or meaninglessness, and spectrums of empathy.
Drawing attention to these nuances of cognition, Other Sides of Cognition will specifically attempt to shed light on how the knowledge surrounding cognition can address forms and figurations of cultural and social understanding.
