These types of unions affect legal thinking, and when analyzed, can give creative insight into the complexities of how law works through the body&#8212;hands, ears, eyes, noses, tongues&#8212;in other words, through spatial, temporal, aural, tangible, culinary and olfactory experience.<\/p>\n<p>东精影业ees will first learn about the Hawaiian cycle of <span aria-label=\"ao\">a&#699;o<\/span> that emphasizes a continual process of learning through teaching and teaching while learning, and then within this context, the roundtable will explore the richly complex manifestations of synesthesia by exploring the ways in which law stimulates the senses.<\/p>\n<p>For the full list of speakers, visit the <a href=\"http:\/\/hilo.hawaii.edu\/news\/stories\/2015\/04\/28\/uh-hilo-hosts-international-law-conference-this-week\/\"><abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> Hilo Stories website<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8212;By Susan Enright<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><abbr>东精影业<\/abbr> Hilo to host conference on the semiotics of law, April 29&#8211;May 2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[26],"tags":[61,154,185,14],"class_list":["post-34203","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-community","tag-hawaii-community-college","tag-law","tag-political-science","tag-uh-hilo","entry","has-media"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34203","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34203"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34203\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":148036,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34203\/revisions\/148036"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34203"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34203"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.hawaii.edu\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34203"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
