"Individual and group histories bear upon the cultural practices of a community, which in turn incorporates that history into itself so that it becomes forgotten, that is, perceived as natural rather than conditioned. Habitus is produced and it is second nature....I cite habitus as a set of bodily practices that can be studied in order to understand both the history that produces those practces and the ways in which a community responds to those objective conditions... But how do we study habitus? How do we perceive the collective movement practices of an entire community? When I describe movement in a certain city, can I rely on just my own somatic perception as information? In other words, is my body enough?"
