This article investigates late-stage Capitalism and the effects its increasing acceleration has had on artistic expression. I will analyse dance as an important moving force against oppressive political doctrine and explore how it might be one of the remaining 'true' forms of artistic expression; an alternate manifestation of language, as well as a standing form of resistance to Capitalism. I will explore how the Rave Culture in the UK (198 8 - 92) was a realisation of this force. I want to extrapolate the increasingly fast-paced nature of Neo-Liberalism and its relationship with dance and examine how dance has become a reflection of the anxiety of a world moving incredibly quickly in all directions, to nowhere. I will examine activity in the arts over the past decades and propose how we could reclaim our freedom of expression in a post-capitalist vision.

Emotions are central to the human experience and reflect our existence as sentient beings. Not only do emotions inform our reasoning and guide others to understand us; they now guide Emotional AI systems to decipher how we feel. The term Emotional AI is borrowed from Professor Andrew McStay and refers to technologies capable of ‘interpret[ing] feelings, emotions, moods, attention and intention in private and public places’ (McStay, 2018, 1). This paper assesses the existing, albeit premature, implementations of the technology and the interwoven impacts on society.

Self-care, a word formed of two compounds: self, a reflexive pronoun meaning ‘auto’ and conveying a notion of identity (Foucault, 1988, p. 25); and care, a noun signifying “the process of protecting someone or something and providing what that person or thing needs” (Care, n.d). Therefore, self-care is the practice of providing for oneself what oneself needs, but what do we need?
