An essay on my concept of Substanzraum, the Space of Substance.
This new concept of space, is analog to the dialectic of mold and cast. It
considers global space filled with actual substances traveling throughout
our planet, shaping each other through time and gravity and thus shaping the
space we live in.
Excerpt/Introduction:
This is the story of the invention of a new spatial concept that is
analog to the dialectic of mold and cast. While looking into a vast
natural scenery, our gaze is locating landmarks comprised of objects and
frames to hold on to, to differentiate areas and to order the larger space
with its hard to grasp entirety. Space itself is floating, or streaming
between these landmarks.
The global space is filled with actual substances traveling around the
planet, shaping each other through time and gravity and thus shaping the
space we live in.
I call this conception of space Substanzraum, the space of substance.
