	year = {2016},
	address = {UC Irvine},
	abstract = {We present different examples of experimentally varying collective experience in order to understand phenomena or qualities of experience such as embodiment, sense of other, pre-individual subjectivity, rhythm and entrainment, ethico-aesthetic improvisation in unmarked performative events.This includes methodological matters such as {\textbullet}	Distinguising between varying the conditions or situation of an environment versus the specific actions or series of fine-grained sub-events in an occasion.{\textbullet}	Eliciting shared ({\textquotedblleft}objective{\textquotedblright}) accounts of experience from a group of participants without over-determining their account with prior schema{\textbullet}	Varying timebased responsive media in ways that mediate concerted tacit engagement.{\textbullet} Sha Xin Wei  will present works on the sense of dynamic, change, rhythm, that simultaneously constitute a non-reductive experimental approach to temporality, and a non-anthropocentric concept of ethico-aesthetic play.   This includes time-conditioning installations, and studies of vegetal experience in philosophy and dance.},
