Tonéxie, a Foundational Philosophical Neologism

A semantic void called to be named.A vision remained insufficient to contain what the Musarthis constellation, as well as the Musarthis Museum, carry within.

A reflection conducted over several years gave rise to a neologism, able to better express the universe of Arthésie and the Musarthis constellation: Tonéxie.

Tonéxie — from the Greek totos and the Latin totus (totality), and from the Latin nexus (link, connection) — does not belong to existing approaches; it arises from a singular perception of the world and constitutes a vision of its own, exclusive to the universe of Arthésie.

The terms holistic and systemic do not suffice to express the being in its entirety. Interconnection and the indivisibility of links prevail within Tonéxie.

Tonéxie (n.) A vision and approach of the being in its interconnected totality, where every dimension — corporeal, psychic, creative, nutritive, sensorial, spiritual, intellectual, philosophical, epistemic, societal, economic, environmental and ecological — is perceived as a living manifestation of an indivisible whole.

Tonéxic (adj.) Relating to Tonéxie.
