Gaga and naming as eco-somatic practices of enchantment
View through CrossRef
This article will trace theories of enchantment and disenchantment in the social sciences to craft a theoretical framework of enchantment as a form of ecological relationality. The framework will be supported by examples drawn from fieldwork completed between 2017 and 2021 in the United Kingdom and Israel of the contemporary somatic practice Gaga, a workshop on blessing and cursing facilitated by Claire MacDonald, and a week-long workshop with Sandra Reeve. These examples, expanded by sections of ethnographic reflection denoted in italics, demonstrate how a contemporary theory of enchantment, through somatic inquiry, may re-instil agency in the cold, mechanized world of modernity and open up channels of possibility to reimagine kinship.
