Transforming the Habit Body Through Music

  • Rachel Elliott

摘要

This chapter examines ways that music can play a transformative role vis-à-vis the habit body. I argue that music can put us into a state of appropriate tension that is ultimately resolved by taking on a new schematic posture. This process exercises our capacity to transform our perceptual habits and ultimately our habit bodies. Music’s transformation ability is considered in relation to racializing vision as well as developmental trauma.
