Floating Bones charts the author's journey into tensegrity, which
begins in ballet and culminates in a model for addressing one's
body as a teacher. Tensegrity flips traditional biomechanical
models such that instead of support coming from the bones, the
bones float, and it is the muscles and other soft connective tissue
that provide support for the moving body. Using the model of
tensegretic experience, Roses-Thema connects somatics, cognition,
rhetoric, and reflective practices detailing the means that
constructed approaching the body as a teacher. This study presents
the argument for extending the models of thinking to include bodily
thinking, by citing how the experiential perspective of tensegrity
constructs physical evidence of the rhetorical concept, metis,
where the body thinks as it moves. This book will be of great
interest to students, scholars, and practitioners of dance,
theater, and sociology.
