seem anything but bewildered, as a paradox which cannot be confronted, only to be brought

to light as much as possible. Amechanon monitors the moves of the Laboratory of Research
on Practical Philosophy, attempting to bring this attitude to light, as a primary attitude of the

Laboratory itself. With the intention of including the gaps, the adversities, the aporiae, the
entrenchments of investigating and comprehending concepts that are driven in the Practical

Philosophy field, of the selection, creation and employment of materials, activities and
actions that are related with the development of a field. In a sense, the journal turns into a

diary.

In this 1 issue, we itemize L.R.P.Ph.'s past activities (in the past, as Laboratory of Research on
Practical & Applied Philosophy, L.R.P.A.Ph.) which have been developed during the academic
year 2015-16, trying to show the element of slowness in building thoughts and beliefs, as, in
a research way, we approach our thematics of interest.

st
The 1 section, [Auditorium], includes theoretical texts that deal with the body as a concept
and its philosophical comprehension on different levels (aesthetic, anthropological, ethical,

historical, educational, phenomenological) in the wake of a scientific meeting that was
organized by the L.R.P.Ph. in 2016, in an attempt to investigate the traces of the body in a

series of action and praxis which slowly shape an understanding of Practical Philosophy, as
it seems to be able to intergrate and reorganize them. This section will be a main part of the

Amechanon Journal and will make attempts to bring such concepts or thematics into
discussion which can be related to Practical Philosophy furthering and specializing this

connection even more.

nd
The 2 section [In the Laboratory] keeps track of the L.R.P.Ph. activities designed, in order to
investigate the way in which research methods, employing philosophical ways, can possibly
be structured for further use in public places (school, community) and for examining their

applications' results in correlation with the dynamic of their theoretical frame and their
connection especially with the field of art.

rd
The 3 section [Theories and Practices] includes some philosophical practices with children
that have been developed outside the L.R.P.Ph.: bringing philosophy in the field of

experience, through art and dialogue, once again posing the question of their possible
interrelation with Practical Philosophy, if that is, and in which way they are traced to the field

and in what way they form it.

Finally, the 4th section [Interviews] introduces a personal scientific path regarding
philosophy – the way in which new ways are opened up, through the engagement with

philosophy, both for philosophy and for the person doing it. In this section, there will be a
