These: Ohne sensorische Praxis sinkt Urteilsfähigkeit und Autonomie.
Thesis: Without sensory experience, judgment and autonomy decline. Reduced sensory experience → shallower cognitive integration.

WORKSHOP
Breathing and Writing – Autonomy and Thinking in the Digital Space

  1. Introduction
  • Digitalization is changing how we think and learn.
  • Hands are not just tools; they are part of our neural architecture.
  • Thesis: Without sensory experience, judgment and autonomy decline.
  1. Neurobiological Basis
  • Embodied Cognition: Thinking is linked to movement and touch.
  • Handwriting activates complex neural networks – typing does not.
  • Multisensory feedback promotes memory and decision stability.
  • Handwriting activates complex neural networks – typing does not.
  • Multisensory feedback promotes memory and decision stability.
  • Handwriting activates sensory experiences. 3. Societal Consequences
  • Digital interfaces → superficial information processing
  • Reduced sensory experience → shallower cognitive integration
  • Consequence: increased suggestibility, less autonomy

Duration: 1 day (6–8 hours)
Participants: 10–15

Schedule:

9:00–9:30 Introduction: Presentation, thesis: Autonomy begins in the hand
9:30–10:30 Neurobiology: Embodied cognition, handwriting vs. typing
10:30–10:45 Break

10:45–12:15 Practical exercises: Handwriting, tactile exercises, reflection

12:15–13:00 Lunch

13:00–14:30 Group discussion: Digital decoupling & judgment

14:30–15:30 Transfer: Application in schools, universities, and cultural projects

15:30–16:00 Conclusion: Summary, discussion, call to action

Goal of the Workshops:
Participants will understand the neural significance of handwriting and touch and be able to apply this knowledge to educational and cultural projects.
