Interesting discussion. But I use since a long time another interpretation.
Each sentence, may even each word tends to transport a gesture,... which
doesn't mean anything else like a movement,.. intentionally.
For instance when I say spiral staircase, it immediate triggers also a
gesture. Otherwise the word couldn't be contextualized, it would be totally
abstract. The German language has a word 'Begriff' which is always difficult
to translate, and for me 'Begreifen' grasping if you want, always included
the realization of this gesture.
Sorry, I hope this isn't too esoteric for this community.
