Theatre theory talk - Reading Antonio Damasio (Self comes to mind): The fact that we can map our own bodies during the experience of different body states is a key to the understanding of others (mirror imaging) and this in the long run: Empathy. This is the basis for stagecraft and musical drama. The actor/musician/dancer is (in a best case scenario) causing the audience to mirror them, by expressing sounds and behaviour that causes the spectator to experience connected primitive emotions.
