Abstract:

This paper explores the multiple significances (semefulness) of touch, as experienced by us as embodied subjects. Prompted by the development of a range of touch-based technologies and by new writings on the senses, I explore meanings of touchconnection, engagement, contiguity, differentiation, positioningfor their contribution to our understanding of the world and of our own embodied subjectivity.
