The main question of
Kristian Martiny’s
dissertation is:
how do we help persons living with the brain
damage, cerebral palsy (CP)?
This question is as complex and difficult to
answer as
any healthcare question.
Martiny argues that we need to ‘open up’
how we do (
cognitive
)
science in order to understand
what
it
means
for persons
to live with CP
and then
figure out how
we
should
help
them
. Based on
his method of
open
-
minded
cognitive science, Martiny presents data
on neuro
-
physiological, psychological and social
aspects of living with CP.
From
this theoretical work,
Martiny
develops an embodied
-
based model of
intervention for CP,
focusing on the experience of self
control as
a way to help people with CP. In addition,
a theatre
performance,
Humane Liquidation
, and a documentary film,
Natural Disorder,
are developed so as
to both
communicate what it means to live with CP and empower persons with CP, their families and friends,
a
s well
as people for whom such insights might be of relevance.
