BODY
Embodied movement within The Tiger Experiment.
This section captures physical expression as a form of exploration — movement studies, improvised fragments, and moments where rhythm, awareness, and presence take shape through the body.
These works are not choreographed performances or polished routines. They are documentation of an ongoing practice of movement and physical awareness.
Within The Tiger Experiment, the body becomes a site of investigation — a place where rhythm, sensation, and instinct are explored through direct physical experience.

Flowstar as Movement Meditation
March 16, 2026
An early flowstar reflection from the period when Big Cat Energy was beginning to move from private experiment into visible form.
This moment studies flowstar not as performance, but as a practice of attention. The lesson was simple: the star cannot be forced into flow. It has to be followed.
Physical feeling, thought, emotion, rhythm, and resistance all become part of the movement. The body listens, adjusts, and lets the motion continue.
This belongs in the Body archive as a record of movement becoming meditation — and flow becoming a method for presence, regulation, and self-trust.
Flowstar POV Study
June 10, 2026
A first-person flowstar study recorded at a music festival using borrowed smart glasses.
I am generally wary of wearable cameras, especially in spaces where people may not realize recording is happening. I made a narrow exception here. The purpose was specific: to see what spinning flowstar looks like from inside the movement.
The video shows a perspective that an outside camera cannot. Hands, timing, grip, rhythm, spatial awareness, and shifting attention all appear from the place where the movement is actually being felt.
Like recording a DJ mix and listening back, this became material for practice. A way to notice timing, consistency, spatial awareness, and the small adjustments that are hard to perceive while the body is already in motion.
Not exactly a performance record. More a study in embodied perspective: a glimpse of flow from the inside.
Wind-Assisted Pizza Spin
July 2, 2026
A flowstar study at the beach using wind as part of the movement.
This video shows a variation of a pizza spin, with the star held more vertically than gravity would usually allow. In still air, this position would only be briefly possible, usually as a transition before the star begins to fall out of the hand.
Here, the wind becomes part of the technique. It catches enough of the star’s surface to help counteract gravity, turning resistance into support.
The same principle can also be used for more dramatic throws with the boomerang technique.
The study is simple, but useful: movement does not happen apart from the environment. The body listens, the hand adjusts, and the air becomes part of the flow.
