This edited volume explores the notion of embodied experience through a diverse range of disciplines: architecture, music, literature, performance studies, philosophy, geopolitics. In doing so, it illuminates the need to redefine the role of the human body as one of the protagonists for raising awareness of space-time issues through processing, experimentation and application of histories and theories of embodied awareness of space. Critically revisiting these spatio-temporal dialogues, this book suggests a method of linking theory, history and practice: past, present and future. The authors reinstate the significance of history and theory in creative thinking, and test their applicability in a number of different areas: theoretical and buildable architectural projects, mapping and geography, representation, and performative arts. This volume will appeal to students and scholars from architecture, art, cultural studies, landscape studies, media studies, and other disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.    Christos Antonios Kakalis is a Senior Lecturer in Architecture at Newcastle University, UK. He is a registered architect and holds a PhD in Architecture from the Edinburgh School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture (E.S.A.L.A). His work focuses on the conditions of embodied experience of the architecture and natural landscape with special emphasis on the role of atmosphere.    David Boyd is a Reader in Architecture in the Department of Architecture, Planning and Landscape (SAPL) at Newcastle University, UK. His work involves combining creative practice with research into lightweight structures and sustainable housing. 

Uniquely tackles the issue of human agency in embodied awareness of space Examines embodiment through hybrid methods from arts, architecture and cultural landscape practices Balances theoretical, historical and practical perspectives
