Abstract

This chapter is a personal reflection on the central importance of the senses in the description of the whys and wherefores of social life. Through personal reflections of sensory encounters at the edge of consciousness, West African encounters that challenged the existential foundation of my being-in-the-world, I suggest that re-sensing the sensory is a powerful way to meet the challenges of social description in a troubled world in need of the wisdom, both sensorial and Indigenous, that marks a path to a more viable future.
