Knowing as Moving vs. Moving as Knowing

The UCLA Department of Information Studies invites faculty, staff, and students to its Information Studies Colloquia.

Presented, Researched, and Written by Dr. Susan Leigh Foster, UCLA

This presentation builds off Dr. Susan Leigh Foster’s recent book, Knowing as Moving, by assessing the difference between claims that moving is a form of knowing as distinct from the hypothesis articulated in my book that it is necessary to move in order to know. She will endeavor to review some of the literatures she used to build this theory as well as consider how such a thesis upends the colonial duality of “mind” and “body.”

No RSVP is needed to attend.
