Language of embodied-vision: Provides the modality of having gone through, and being in, a world which remains continuously because it comprehends the totality of the cultural movement on which it is grounded (C A Hooker, 1974, p.74). It is the embodiment of choosers in movement. Rationality is not then based on “the narrow logic of appeal to premises and conclusion, but rather, on an appeal to a community of listeners capable of understanding and changing, or re-directing the movement of their song”. (de Nicolas, 1978, p.154). The vision becomes an objective norm, not as the result of a dogmatically imposed constraint on action, but rather as the embodiment of the norm as discovered in a community of plural activities, decisions and descriptions. (p.154). Within such a context “we find ourselves facing moving webs, moving structures; each structure a rhythm through which a body-world appears, revealing a background of living beings together with the glory and terrors of their life”. (p.122)
