Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the problem of overcoming the stereotypical patterns imposed by the aesthetics of modernity. The idea of separating an interdisciplinary field of knowledge, including science and artistic practice, is defended. Interdisciplinary connections are based on the sensory study of being and the immediate exploitation of the sensations and sensory sensations of the human body, interpreted as a kind of artistic material in an extended (multisensory) field. Equality of all sensory channels in the creative act is upheld, including the tactility, smell, taste neglected by aesthetics.
