This volume presents a line of original experimental studies on the bodily self, investigating where people locate themselves in their bodies and how accurate they are at localizing their body parts. So far, it was not well known whether people locate themselves in one or more specific regions of their bodies. On the other hand, some systematic distortions in indicating bodily locations were already documented. In the present studies, participants were therefore asked to indicate their self-locations, as well as the locations of several of their body parts, using a self-directed, first-person perspective pointing paradigm in various virtual reality (VR) setups (different head-mounted displays and a large-screen immersive display). Overall, participants were found to locate themselves mainly in the (upper) face and the (upper) torso. However, striking differences in self-localization were found when testing in different VR setups. Upon further investigation, these differences were found to be foremost due to inaccuracies in body part localization. When taking these inaccuracies into account, differences between setups—and also with self-localization outside of VR—largely disappear. Another striking finding was that providing participants—in between pointing phases—with information about their bodies in the form of a real-time animated self-avatar, did not make them more accurate at locating their own body parts. While manipulating their viewpoint to chest-height of their self-avatar did shift the afterwards indicated locations of their own body parts upwards, towards where they were seen on the avatar. Potential explanations for the various new findings, also from tasks outside of VR, are discussed. Taken together, this volume suggests a differential involvement of multi-sensory information processing in experienced self-location within the body and the ability to locate body parts. Self-localization seems to be less flexible, possibly because it is strongly grounded in the 'bodily senses', while body part localization appears more adaptable to the manipulation of sensory stimuli, at least in the visual modality.

Contemporary Christian theology continues to struggle with the tragedy of inexplicable human suffering and the endurance of evil. The pressing issue of "Where is God?" in seemingly godless situations provides the focus of Were You There? Godforsakenness in Slave Religion. In this book, David Emmanuel Goatley investigates the doctrine of God in relation to the experience of those living under conditions of extreme oppression. In this experience of "Godforsakenness" Goatley finds an echo of Jesus' poignant cry from the cross, "My God, why have you forsaken me?" Were You There? approaches this question through a narrative methodology, particularly by examining the slave narratives as well as the spirituals that were products of the same era. Both these sources provide important ways of viewing the experience of "Godforsakenness" and the problem of God's presence or absence in the extremities and absurdities of human suffering. Using these insights as a hermeneutic, Were You There? then proceeds to an interpretation of Jesus' cry of dereliction in Mark.

Were You There? Over 200 Wonderful, Weird, and Wacky Moments from the Canadian Tire Centre in Ottawa (1996-2020) By: Stephen Mulligan Just like his first two books, Were You There? Over 300 Wonderful, Weird and Wacky Moments from the Pittsburgh Civic/Mellon Arena and Were You There? Over 300 Wonderful, Weird and Wacky Moments from Pittsburgh’s Three Rivers Stadium, author Stephen Mulligan continues his series with this latest book, Were You There? Over 200 Wonderful, Weird and Wacky Moments from Ottawa’s Canadian Tire Centre (1996-2020). Here, Stephen takes readers on another memorable journey of special events. Beginning with its opening day on January 15, 1996 to 2020, the book details 25 years of the hits and misses of this west end Ottawa structure. Many of the greatest moments came from the accomplishments of athletes and entertainers who performed there. They include Wayne Gretzky, Daniel Alfredsson, Eric Lindros, Alexander Ovechkin, Sidney Crosby, Neil Diamond, U2, Bruce Springsteen, Alanis Morissette, The Tragically Hip, Stompin’ Tom Connors and several others. All of these talented individuals/groups, along with a host of “ordinary” folks have a moment(s) in this book. Were You There?
