Independent choreographer Megan Rhyme is opening the door to her mind this Sunday, November 22 at 8:30pm at Outer Space for a work-in-progress showing of Inner Cartography: The Science of New Things. Six months deep into her research, Rhyme has been picking the brain of UCSD neuroscientist Miriam Sach, Ph.D about body mapping, “a term used to describe the spatial distribution of neurons in the motor cortex of the brain and the patterns of neurons that reflect our movement experiences.” Opening the scientific to the personal, her work reflects upon “the emotional burdens we put on ourselves when learning.” The showing will be followed by a discussion—a donation of $5 is suggested by Rhyme and seconded by me.
