Some areas of difference

  • breadth and flexibility v focus

and grasp

  • the new v the known
  • possibility v predictability
  • integration v division
  • the hierarchy of attention
  • the whole v the part
  • context v abstraction
  • individuals v categories
  • the differences in sameness
  • the personal v the impersonal
  • living v non-living
  • empathy and ‘theory of mind’
  • emotional asymmetry

– emotional receptivity – emotional expressivity – differences in emotional affinity

  • reason v rationality
  • the twin bodies
  • meaning and the implicit
  • music and time
  • depth
  • self-awareness and emotional

timbre

  • moral sense
  • the self

The left hemisphere world …

  • loss of the broader picture
  • knowledge replaced by information, tokens or representations
  • loss of concepts of skill and judgment
  • abstraction and reification
  • bureaucracy (Berger):

– procedures that are known – anonymity – organisability – predictability – justice reduced to mere equality – explicit abstraction

  • loss of the sense of uniqueness
slide-51
SLIDE 51

… the left hemisphere world …

  • quantity the only criterion
  • ‘either/or’
  • reasonableness replaced by rationality
  • failure of common sense
  • systems designed to maximise utility
  • loss of social cohesion
  • depersonalisation
  • paranoia and lack of trust
  • need for total control
  • anger and aggression
  • the passive victim

SLIDE 52

…the left hemisphere world

  • art conceptual

– visual art lack a sense of depth, and distorted or bizarre perspectives – music would be reduced to little more than rhythm – language diffuse, excessive, lacking in concrete referents

  • deliberate undercutting of the sense of awe or wonder
  • flow just the sum of an infinite series of ‘pieces’
  • discarding of tacit forms of knowing

– ‘network of small complicated rules’

  • spectators rather than actors
  • dangerously unwarranted optimism
