Although both terms, according to de Certeau’s usage, do differentiate between two different perceived fields or areas, both “space” and “place” may refer to one particularity, though focus in on two different aspects of the same thing, where “place” refers to a location and “space” refers to what de Certeau calls a “practiced place.” What lies before you, then, is both and neither, which is what Merleau-Ponty presumably referred to by asserting that “space is existential” and “existence is spatial.” “This experience is a relation to the world; in dreams and in perception, and because it probably precedes their differentiation, it expresses ‘the same essential structure of our being as a being situated in relationship to a milieu’—being situated by a desire, indissociable from a ‘direction of existence’ and implanted in the space of a landscape.”  ︎ “From this point of view ‘there are as many spaces as there are distinct spatial experiences.’ The perspective is determined by a ‘phenomenology’ of existing in the world.” 3 https://somebodysomewhere.today/Collection-3 Fri, 24 May 2019 07:38:33 +0000 Somebody Somewhere https://somebodysomewhere.today/Collection-3 THE ABSENCE OF FIELD ︎ HAND CAST SCULPTURES MADE OF JESMONITE, CLAY, AND PLASTER  ︎ “IN A FIELD I AM THE ABSENCE OF FIELD4︎ “Being is occultated across the very spatio-temporal spread of its apparition, that is true; but what we need then to come into contact with its full spread is not a method of undoing the distances to achieve immediate presence and coincidence with it, but rather the ‘idea of proximity through distance, of intuition as auscultation or palpation in depth.’” ︎ MORE https://somebodysomewhere.today/Video-4-copy Fri, 24 May 2019 11:03:00 +0000 Somebody Somewhere https://somebodysomewhere.today/Video-4-copy RUNNING READING LIST 1 The Visible and the Invisible MAURICE MERLEAU-PONTYConversations About Sculpture RICHARD SERRA / HAL FOSTER 3 The Practice of Everyday Life MICHEL DE CERTEAU 4 "Keeping Things Whole"MARK STRAND  Religion and Nothingness KEIJI NISHITANI WORKING NOTES (TINYLETTER) ︎
