These posts cover optimizing human-environment interactions to improve health, discussing auditory and vision optimization, shoe and furniture design, and movement. It includes practical solutions like the Sprike app and kneeling stools to promote better posture and well-being through ergonomic practices
promotes ergonomically designed shoes that enhance natural gait and posture, emphasizing the use of advanced materials and manufacturing techniques for better neuromotor engagement and reduced strain
critiques the widespread use of chairs for sitting, advocating for a stool-based posture that aligns the spine over the pelvis, leveraging natural postural reflexes for better structural health
Fossil fuel giant Exxon (Humble/Esso) bragging about their ability to change the climate – 1962 This is not fake – a two-page spread in Life Magazine 2/2/1962.I grew up inside this corporate culture of exploitation (I am an Exxon...
Our bodies are perpetually under the influence of acceleration due to gravity, and we maneuver by altering how this acceleration acts on our mass. By examining the acceleration data, especially the rate at which acceleration changes—known as...
The ergonomics of the kneeling chair design intend to assist in maintaining proper orientation of the pelvis to support the spine. Although common designs allow for this, it is common for the seat’s orientation to permit the body to slide...
Our normal perception of our surroundings, especially in developed countries, is that we move about inside a spatial cube, a box with length, breadth, and height. This perception is reinforced by the machined flat surfaces upon which we engage...
Dear Vision Zero SF Team,Subject: Proposal for the Redesign of Pedestrian Walk Signage to Promote Ergonomic Posture San Francisco Crosswalk Signal I am writing to propose a redesign of San Francisco’s pedestrian walk signals. As a...
While deeply embedded within our built surroundings, it is challenging for us to understand the movement dynamics of our hunter/gatherer ancestors. A recent discovery in White Sands National Park of ancient footprints, perhaps 23,000 years old...
Our reflexes, qualities of the tensile fabric of our connective tissue matrix, muscle strength, and conceptual framework influence how we move. Our characteristics of movement can be captured with Inertial Measurement Units (IMU) in the three...
