The structural connector PolyConnec is a component of the ‘movement infrastructure’ developed in my doctoral research “FormMind Body Space Time – the Geometry of Human Movement” The PhD was in Creative Arts & Communication, Arts & Education and consisted in creative work / practice-based research exploring the art & science of human movement: the concept of form—the body configuration in space and time—is the connecting thread between movement practices and mindfulness. The artwork/design output of the research is the ‘Movement Infrastructure’ ; a conceptual framework and built modular system—made of several prototypes of PolyConnec to inspire and guide human movement, where the subject moves and aligns to geometry inspired postures, achieving states of mindfulness and relaxation.Of specific interest for our development is the discussion in pages 79-106.
