I thought I was doing a normal research for my end year of Univercity, but then I realized that talking accurately about time and the personal time experience of an individual is a tricky thing. Reading about how neuroscience explains the human perception of time I am fascinated by the insights and hungry for a coherent theory.
I am working with the dancing body and already testing out practically some of these insights, like different arousal levels, amount of events per (time unit), and novel vs routine experiences. If you have any suggestions or you are busy around the same subject, don't hesitate to contact me for an exchange.
I don't know if this will help but check it out:

Maybe you could add some light/shadow to the performance from different perspectives as the video shows.
Jorge Sánchez I have not been dealing yet with physical time, but thank you for the reminder. I've made it more convinient for myself to separate inner and external experience from each other. It's crazy and I will go there once I convince my science friends to go into the arts! hehe
I also find it hard to come up with an idea that does not just "represent" the phenomenon but involves it or fascilitates it to emerge. I am thinking of immersive experiences.
I am by no means an expert, but the idea of psychological time has to do with parallels. Such as a moment can seem like a lifetime, weeks can go by in the blink of an eye. Fast vs slow, short vs long. It would be interesting to simulate these parallels with a slow paced dance with fast music and a faster dance with slow music. Periods of darkness and moving lights can also affect and disorient someone, which is something that psychological time does. Just food for thought.
