Unfolding and Enfolding A Living Architexture

Moving In

Awareness and Attention, the left arm.
Consciousness and Intention, the right arm.
Equilibration of the arms by hand clapping (or bow).

Why Architexture

Architecture implies a framework, revealing the design, layout, and building of an entity.

Texture indicates lived experience — what individuals can feel, encounter, interpret, and shift.

An architexture is a structure that stays alive because persons live for, with, from, through, because of it, It, IT.

It takes on the shape of the life lived within IT, and hands that shape back_Legacy and Legacent!

AND so, 

Two arms. One motion between them.

The left arm is Awareness and Attention:
The arm that moves out FOR the world, opens, shares, and narrows to what matters.
It's about well-living!

The right arm is Consciousness and Intention:
The arm retrieves what you've collected, assigns it significance, and then reframes what's next.
It's about well-being!

Adding,

Reflection and Regeneration are not a third arm.
It's what happens when the two arms with hands meet—like a clap!
A single hand, no matter how open or how focused, makes no sound on its own.
It takes both arms with the hands coming together to produce the clap—and it's the clap, not either hand alone, that dynamically balances (equilibrates) what unfolds and enfolds.
Alternatively, the two hands, palms together, with head bow or two arms by your side and bow or whatever arm/hand gesture that is culturally appropriate.
