This contribution aims to offer a first answer to the question: how can we make conceivable the meaning and the consequences of “tensegrity”? In order to do this, I highlight some philosophically relevant elements of the concept of tensegrity (§ 1); then, I put together the perspective of a Philosophy of Tensegrity with the one of the Process Philosophy, and I claim that tensegrity can help in rethinking some fundamental philosophical topics or problems, referring mainly to the work of Gilles Deleuze (§ 2). Afterward, I suggest that such rethinking should be considered a sort of training in perceiving and taking into account in a clearer and more explicit way the transformations that surround us and in which we are living (§ 3).

Abstract

This contribution aims to offer a first answer to the question: how can we make conceivable the meaning and the consequences of “tensegrity”? In order to do this, I highlight some philosophically relevant elements of the concept of tensegrity (§ 1); then, I put together the perspective of a Philosophy of Tensegrity with the one of the Process Philosophy, and I claim that tensegrity can help in rethinking some fundamental philosophical topics or problems, referring mainly to the work of Gilles Deleuze (§ 2). Afterward, I suggest that such rethinking should be considered a sort of training in perceiving and taking into account in a clearer and more explicit way the transformations that surround us and in which we are living (§ 3).
