Re: Stasis

Dear Steven & public-xformsusers,

May it deserve to add to what I sent before:


((This is what could be red on "Kant, Art and Art History" by Mark A.
Cheetam (2001) where he attempted a model of disciplinary spatial
affiliation called "plasmatics")) to imagine and describe different
spatiotemporal moments at which visual arts and art history have received
and adapted Kantian patterns of thought. It is a model of disciplinary
interaction and change based on Kant's reception in the visual arts and art
history.

"By referring to disciplinary interactions as "plasmatic"... they take
place within a "space" of multidimensional and shifting cultural
intensities, and that the specific contours of this matrix are inflected
hidtorically and theoretically by by the forces of which it is comprised...
a model of this complexity and flexibility allows us to understand more
fully how an active element on the system, "Kant", can shape and be shaped
by both art history and visual arts". (p. 25)

 ((It went around those things with nuances: "plasm", "plasma", plasmatic"
and "blobs". Thus it may relate with Marcos Novak's "Liquid Architecture".))
