Future Humans: Will Our Bodies Become Multiplanetary?

Our post this month comes from Elizabeth Stela, a PhD student in Ethnomusicology at UC Riverside. As a former dancer with the Martha Graham Ensemble, she is interested in how the body reacts to training, education, and non-human entities such gravity, technology, and musical instruments. Elizabeth holds an MA in oral history from Columbia University.
