Salon: Getting in Touch

Have you ever wondered why we promise each other to stay in touch or get in touch, why we talk about being in touch with something or someone, and never ever say “I’ll stay in sight.”, “I really need to get in taste with myself.”, “Thanks for getting in smell.” or “I’ll get in sound with my mother tomorrow?”

As with everything when it comes to language, there must be a reason for why it is touch that we keep referring to. What happens, what is the sensation and the magic that goes beyond the purely sensory experience and lead us to give touch that role in our vocabulary? Why is it that research has shown that basketball teams whose players touch each other prior to taking a free throw have higher scoring percentages than teams who don’t? Can’t touch this. I’m really touched - what is the magic of touch, and how can we all experience more of it if it is really that important?

Participants included: Jesse Hirsh, Jan Lemke, Sherida Ryan, David Ryan, Jeanette Herrle, Murley Herrle-Fanning, Scott Suthren, Andrea Ostrowski, Dean Bentley-Falke, Christian Hedel, Priscilla Gravenhorst, Vasiliki Bednar, and Oksana Hosvha.
