EMERGENCE
In philosophy, systems theory, science, and art, emergence occurs when an entity is observed to have properties. It's parts do not have on their own properties or behaviors which emerge only when the parts interact in a wider whole. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergence
SOCIAL DYNAMICS
Social dynamics (or Socio-dynamics) is the study of the behavior of groups that results from the interactions of individual group members as well to the study of the relationship between individual interactions and group level behaviors. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_dynamics
MDA - MULTI DIMENSIONAL AWARENESS
The bifurcation of attention, Simultaneity . MDA in rhythm is triggered by merging polarities within the one feild of awarness i.e active/ passive, Speaking /listening, right /left, up/down, tension/relaxation.
VESTIBULAR
The vestibular system, in vertebrates, is a sensory system that provides the leading contribution to the sense of balance and spatial orientation for the purpose of coordinating movement with balance. Together with the cochlea, a part of the auditory system, it constitutes the labyrinth of the inner ear in most mammals. - wiki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vestibular_system
PRECISE VESTIBULAR RHYTHMIC MOVEMENT
Vestibular movement is the main driver of rhythmic orientation. Precise, repetitive and most importantly synchronised movements of the head and neck will stimulate strong rhythmic perception. By stepping laterally and/or forward in patterns that represents precise rhythmic cycles the vestibular will register this movement and over time create deep rhythmic entrainment! When combined with the stimulus from rhythmic speaking/singing along with skeletal pulse waves from the impact of stepping and clapping, this rhythmic information (if syncronised) will meet at the brain stem to trigger the bodies innate rhythmic intelligence.
VOLUNTARY, AUTOMATIC & AUTONOMOUS MOVEMENT
There are three types of rhythmic movement...
Voluntary rhythmic movement - is governed by conscious "will", is associated with control and co-ordination, however has a quality of rigidity and therefor by itself cannot not synchronise. It represents rhythmic form void of essence or life (connection to inaudible).
Automatic Rhythmic Movement -is involuntary, lacks conscious control, it cannot be observed by the conscious mind without being disturbed, is prone to becoming compulsive (reactive) and can easily become random. It associated with a lack of presence!
Autonomous rhythmic movement - comes about through finding the balance of involuntary and voluntary movement, being flexible it enables the fluctuation of chaos and order and therefore lays the foundation of synchronisation. It can exist in the simultaneity of two or more independent layers of rhythmic movement and can be witnessed without being disturbed. Once rhythmic movement becomes autonomous it has embodied the essence of rhythm and generates presence.
