intero examines how choreographic structures influence emotional perception and social processing through somatosensory activation. In collaboration with Dr. Meletaki at the Penn Center for Neuroaesthetics, the work explores how anger and happiness manifest kinesthetically. Utilizing a sequential emotional discriminatory task, emotionally valent musical score initiated movement scores, which were mirrored and transmitted between dancers, serving as a metric for socio-emotional synergy. Additionally, the cardio-synchrony alignment task measured the dancers’ BPM through rhythmic intention cross referenced with radial pulse check-ins. Grounded in neurochoreographic principles, the piece merges improvisation with structured composition to balance raw authenticity and precision. intero ultimately challenges rigid emotional categorization, expanding the expressive depth of movement.
