Coherence/interactional gestalt

Coherence/interactional gestalt

n. the integration of temporal elements into a completed whole.

Soma Literacy recognizes that a mere ordering of temporal variables cannot constitute a coherent experience or what Lim et al. (2007) describe as an interaction gestalt. Coherent experience requires an embodiment of vectorial motion, not the simple hitting of ordered touchpoints, but a participatory engagement in time with momentum. Without an attention to momentums, there can be no temporal coherence.
