the varieties of religious experience June 1902
william james posits that individual religious
experiences, rather then the tenets of organized
religions, form the backbone of religious
life it is experience itself that is important

user is experience body-mind centering merges the
conceptual and experiential, shifting between
observing and embodying. From this union arises
an understanding, from the inside out ,,, and the
outside in of how an individual is doing or being
anything. Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen

differing frames of reference
user is experience Gymnastik the late Elsa
Gindler created a radically simple way of working
with experience, in which participants learn
simply how to pay attention.
user has experience
22
differing frames of reference
user is experience a process of
de-hypnotizing by the constant invoking of
awareness . this depends upon avoiding external
suggestion and becoming independent of anything
which is not internal. Kundalini yoga
user has experience
23
differing frames of reference
user is experience Not only can we be aware
of each part of our physical self, we can be
aware with each part of our physical self. This
leads to a very intimate, almost microscopic
experience which is the self. Bonnie Bainbrige
Cohen
user has experience
24
differing frames of reference
inseparability
separation reductionism The role of the
usability specialist is not a creative one in the
same way that a user interface designer is
creative. The usability specialist simply reacts
to the design based on established guidelines
borne of experiments and experience (heuristics).

inseparability bodily movement is a thought,
and a thought expresses itself in corporeal
form. Games for Actors and non-actors Augusto
Boal
separation
26
differing frames of reference
inseparability The name body-mind centering
illustrates this dilemma. In order to speak of a
totality of being which does not dichotomize body
and mind, one ends up using two words which
do. Sensing, Feeling and Action Bonnie Bainbridge
Cohen
separation
27
differing frames of reference
inseparability I deliberately avoid defining
this as soul, psyche, mind, feeling,
sub-consciousness, consciousness, individuality,
or even body-mind. For me, the word I
summarized all of this. I ask the students to
replace my words with their own in order to avoid
having to separate themselves from the work
