Social performances and their discontents
Social Synaesthesia
This article introduces the notion of social synaesthesia as a means of theorizing about mindbody-society relationships. Following a brief discussion of synaesthesia, the concept of social synaesthesia is developed. This concept is then illustrated using photic (light) experiences among devotees in a religious group. It is argued that these experiences illustrate the materialization or embodiment of the experience of charisma in a leader's presen…
Civilised Bodies Redux
