Description
Arm operates as a functional mechanism that extends capability beyond the core body or system. It enables interaction with the environment through grasping, pushing, pulling, or signaling, transforming intention into physical effect. Arm becomes a conduit for agency, allowing influence to be exerted at a distance. It also structures spatial relationships, defining zones of access, control, and interaction. As a functional element, arm introduces leverage, precision, and adaptability, shaping how tasks are executed and how systems respond to challenges. It embodies the principle of extension, bridging internal intention with external action.
