Sacred Geometry: Tom Flemons and the Human Tensegrity Model

What if the model we've used to explain the human body could never stand up on its own?In this episode of Sacred Geometry, Joanne explores the remarkable work of Tom Flemons, whose human tensegrity models challenged centuries of conventional biomechanics. Inspired by Kenneth Snelson and Buckminster Fuller, Flemons spent decades building physical demonstrations of the body's living architecture, revealing a model based on continuity rather than isolated parts.You'll discover:Why a classroom skeleton cannot stand on its ownHow Tom Flemons built the first human tensegrity modelsWhy the body is not simply a system of levers and jointsWhat embryology reveals about living architectureHow fascia creates continuity throughout the bodyThis episode brings Sacred Geometry directly into the human body and lays the foundation for the next chapter of the series, where Joanne explores Donald Ingber's groundbreaking research into tensegrity at the level of the living cell.If these ideas resonate with you, Joanne Avison and Paul Thornley teach you about fascia, movement, anatomy and Sacred Geometry in depth through the Myofascial Magic in Action programme.
