(composed by Claude Sonnet under the guidance of the author) (Thanks to Bill Brubaker for helpful discussions!) Fuller coined “tensegrity” (tensional integrity) to describe structures where isolated components under compression float within a continuous network of tension elements. The key insight is that stability doesn’t come from stacking rigid parts — it comes from the

(composed by Claude Sonnet under the guidance of the author) I. Wiener’s Intellectual Foundation Norbert Wiener (1894–1964) was one of the towering mathematical minds of the twentieth century, and his central insight was deceptively simple: information, feedback, and control are universal principles that apply equally to machines and living organisms. In his landmark 1948 book
