Movement and voice plastics: suggestion for the combined use of movement and voice as a method to improve mental, emotional, physical capacities

The aim of this study is to propose the Movement and Voice Plastics Method, explain its applications and make its high-detailed taxonomy in order to create a new form through mechanisms of imitation of bodily movement and sound material in humans. It is also to propose a method that can be used in creative art education such as drama and to improve the quality of education and improvisation skills. In addition, another aim of the study is to examine and investigate the importance and contributions of studies related to plasticity in the neurobiological, emotional, sensory and affective development of an individual, which is of high importance in the lives of individuals. These components are also highly important in therapeutic settings. Nowadays, the use of materials of movement and sound/vocal is relatively common in art therapy practices. For this reason, the method and taxonomy specified in this study can also be used in art therapy applications. Therefore, this study also aims to be supportive method for art therapy practices.
