What happens when someone gives a name to something that has always existed?Buckminster Fuller didn't invent tensegrity, but by naming it, he gave the world a new way of seeing. In this episode of the Sacred Geometry series, Joanne explores how Fuller's remarkable work connected architecture, engineering, biology and the living human body through one universal principle…From geodesic domes and “Spaceship Earth” to carbon molecules, fascia and human movement, this episode reveals why Fuller's ideas continue to reshape our understanding of living architecture today.You'll discover:Why Buckminster Fuller coined the term tensegrityHow geodesic domes reveal nature's principles of force distributionWhy the same geometric patterns appear from carbon molecules to the cosmosWhat synergetics and whole-system thinking can teach us about the human bodyHow these ideas are transforming our understanding of fascia, movement and anatomyThis episode continues the journey from Leonardo da Vinci and Kenneth Snelson, exploring how a single word - tensegrity - helped reveal one of nature's most profound organising principles. It also lays the foundation for the next episode, where Joanne introduces Tom Flemons and his groundbreaking work applying these ideas directly to the human body.If this way of understanding the body resonates with you, Joanne Avison and Paul Thornley teach these principles through their online programme, Myofascial Magic in Action.
