In a recent Trilogue on Embodied Foresight practice the practitioner's role in their engagement with present problems as enacting the future is explored.
The three practitioners, Josh Floyd, Alex Burns and Jose Ramos, discuss in this article what it means to take reflexive theory into embodied practice. The article draws on the apithological theme of the Health of the Whole. Floyd writes: " ...health relates not only to the capacity to fix problems (pathologies) when they arise, it also relates to ways of being in which the problems do not arise in the first place. This is related to the concept of apithology."
In this we embrace how the future is not out there waiting for us, instead beginning to see 'the future as a principle of present action' in which we have an infinitely present role.
