The embodied cognition theory is the product of the "second generation of cognitive science revolution".Cognitive science is a new discipline derived from philosophy,psychology,linguistics,anthropology,computer science and neuroscience.The core view of the first generation of traditional cognition in cognitive science is "the theory of disembodied cognition",ignoring the participation and function of the body in the cognitive process.The "embodied cognitive theory" put forward by the second generation of cognitive science is a reflection of the traditional cognitive theory.Its main point of view is that the body participates in the cognitive process,plays an important role in it,and expands the body into the specific environment,thus forming a dynamic unity of the body,mind(brain function)and environment.In the perception and experience of music,it is also the process that the body perceives music to produce brain reflection,and then the brain dominates the body movement,which reflects the physical characteristics of cognition.This paper discusses the concrete embodiment of the characteristics of body in music perception and experience,aiming at the way the body receives music and expresses music,the influence of environment on body movement and cognitive results,and the interdependent and interlocking relationship among body,mind(brain function)and environment.This article mainly consists of four chapters.The first chapter "Overview of embodied cognition theory" mainly summarizes embodied cognition theory,sorts out its philosophical origin,expounds its neurobiological basis-mirror neurons,and analyzes the core viewpoints put forward by embodied cognition theory,one is that body affects cognition,the other is that body,cognition and environment are dynamically unified.The second chapter "the materiality of music perception" discusses the sensory process of body organs receiving information and the perceptual process of brain function integration in music perception,and explains the two main manifestations of synesthesia and linkage generated in the process of music perception,which embodies the characteristics of mind stored in body,perception relying on body and mind reflected in body.The third chapter "the materiality of music experience" discusses the music postures generated in music experience.this paper divides music postures into dance postures and sound postures,and uses questionnaire survey and interview methods to specifically analyze the performance of music postures in music experience.it respectively discusses the relationship between dance postures,sound postures and environment(including natural environment and human environment),which embodies the accommodation and nourishment of environment to body.through the personal experience of environment,the body reflects the abstract characteristics of environment on the brain and shows that music postures are the result of interaction between body and environment.The fourth chapter "music perception,experience and identity" uses the method of comparison,taking the reaction of some ethnic minorities and Han nationality in music perception as an example,and makes comparison,and expounds that in the process of their own music perception and experience,the ethnic minorities relive their national music and emotion,arouse the brain to recall the emergence of memory and the reappearance of past music scenes,and the brain projects the national culture in a metaphorical mode,thus creating a sense of belonging and further creating the identity of self.This shows that the body in a specific environment,in music perception and experience,will produce cognitive results integrated with the environment,reflecting the dynamic unity of mind(brain function),body and environment.Through the above discussion,it is reflected that the perception and experience of music are physical and the participation of the body runs through all the time.The bodies cultivated in different environments are controlled by the brain to produce different movements.At the same time,in the experience of music posture,the brain projects the corresponding culture in a metaphorical mode,and then music perception and experience trigger the affirmation and identification of self-identity.In order to reflect the embodiment of embodied cognitive characteristics in music perception and experience.
