Tensegrity with Aren Skalman

Made from simple materials like straws and yarn, Tensegrity—developed by Buckminster Fuller and sculptor Kenneth Snelson—uses tension and compression to make structures that are light, strong, and capable of dynamic movement. Since then “bio-tensegrity” has become a useful model of how all living things, including the human body are constructed and move.
