Modernism came to represent the idea of movement in a painting ((Nu) descendant l’escalier, Marcel Duchamp 1912). One hundred years later, in so-called post-modernism, movement can only be represented by means of movement. Todays technology surpasses old habits of physical perception and therefore a strong feeling of alienation is caused, incorporated in this, is the separation of the body from space, we seem to be in constant movement, whilst simultaenosly being passive receivers as well as transmitters. At the same time neuroscientists are pointing out so far unknown links between physical activity and consciousness.
