    Tensegrity, tensional integrity or floating compression is a structural principle based on a system of isolated components under compression inside a network of continuous tension.

    The bottles are in compression, while the tensors are providing… You guessed it, tension.

      Tensegrity usually means integrity from primarily tension, like cables used as the main struts for something. This just looks like it’s bottles as a structural element with rods preventing them from coming apart
