Abstract

This component contains the full white paper, abstract, README, metadata, and licensing files for the conceptual paper articulating RC Posture™ as a descriptive stance within the Somatic & Physical Literacy™ phenomenological arc. The paper names RC Posture™ as a way of attending to pre-interpretive appearance—orientation, bearing, location, and gravitational arrangement—prior to narrative, explanation, or psychologization. It defines interpretive drift, clarifies the distinction between showing, registration, and account, and outlines the stance’s descriptive, non-therapeutic, and non-outcome-oriented boundaries. This component provides the canonical reference for researchers working with pre-interpretive appearance under conditions of descriptive restraint.
