09.01.2022 Victor Gurfinkel's research is of great interest to us in the larger Alexander community. Two of AT's leading research scientists, Dr. Rajal Cohen and Dr. Tim C...acciatore, both had the opportunity to do research papers with Dr. Gurfinkel at OHSU. ResearchGate shows 258 publications credited to Dr. Gurfinkel. He recently died (January 14, 2020) after clearly a very meaningful life. Isn't it wonderful to remember how much one person can offer to society! "Much of his research involved the study of the internal representation of the body and external space in the human brain, to understand how the brain forms the models on the basis of which motor behavior is realized. His concept of the role of the body schema in generating the physical configurations of the body for action, in an anticipatory process, was a key concept not only for modern physiology but also for a completely novel approach to many pathologies. His main scientific interest was the control of posture and movement in humans. He was a pioneer in the use of stabilography for the study of human upright posture. He had a particular interest in the normal regulation of and disturbances to muscle tone and how these disturbances affect movement performance. He was also interested in the biophysical mechanisms of skeletal muscle contraction. His studies of postural regulation led him to conclude that the motor system is not reduced to a set of simple postural reflexes."

06.01.2022 One of the most exciting 60 seconds of film I've ever seen. The precision. The feeling. The shoes. The HAIR coming down on cue, the freaking pants and that vest... and that oh my God all of it. Carmen Amaya in 1944 From "Follow the Boys."
