Abstract: Abstract Dance, as a fully embodied art form, is deeply anchored in space and time. Time in dance is structured through the dynamics of dancers’ bodies, as well as through rhythmic and musical cues. Temporal coordination is fundamental to dance on many levels, from the skilled execution of complex whole-body moves to the concerted action of a dance company. Even though dance does not necessarily depend on the presence of music, the ability to entrain to a rhythm is fundamental on many levels. Equally important are memory-based processes, from the learning, flawless reproduction, and real-time adaptation of choreography to the ad hoc application of an extensive movement repertoire in improvisation. This chapter takes a closer look at how time is experienced both while watching dance and while dancing, during live performances or at club parties.

Subjective Time Experience, Bodily Sensations, and the Aesthetic Experience of Dance Choreographies
Maja Vukadinović
TL;DR: Subjective time experience and aesthetic experience of dance choreographies are positively related. Duration and passage of time perception differ between dance styles. Hip-hop choreographies are perceived to pass faster than other dance styles.
Music in the Air and in the Body: An Interoceptive System’s Perspective on Musical Emotions, Awareness, and Time
Clemens Wöllner
TL;DR: This study explores the interoceptive system's role in musical emotions, awareness, and time perception, integrating multimodal body sensations with music performance and perception, and discusses the concept's unifying framework and potential applications.
Szubjektív időélmény, testérzetek és a tánckoreográfiák esztétikai élménye
Maja Vukadinović
TL;DR: A szubjektív időélmény és az esztétikai élmény közötti összefüggés, a testérzetek és a tánckoreográfiák esztétikai élménye. A tanulmány eredményei arra mutatnak rá, hogy a nézők szubjektív becslése az egyes koreográfiák időtartamára vonatkozóan nem különbözik jelentősen a koreográfiák objektív időtartamától.

TL;DR: In recent years, remarkable advances have been made in the understanding of the visual, motoric, and affective influences on perception of human action, as well as in the elucidation of the neural concomitants of perception ofhuman action.
How emotions colour our perception of time.
TL;DR: It is outlined how these new findings can be explained within the framework of internal-clock models and described how emotional arousal and valence interact to produce both increases and decreases in attentional time sharing and clock speed.
