Bicorporeal

/baɪkɔrˈpɔriəl/ adjective

Definition

Composed of or existing in two bodies or forms; having a dual physical nature or manifestation.

Etymology

From 'bi-' (two) + 'corporeal' (relating to the body), from Latin 'corporeus.' Primarily a philosophical or theological term for things existing in two simultaneous physical states.

Kelly Says

Avatar systems in science fiction explore 'bicorporeal' existence—your consciousness in two different bodies at once, which is wild to think about because it challenges every assumption we have about identity being tied to one physical form.
