Show The amount or strength of definition passing through the face depends on the volume of each continumorph. Analogue 6) Symbiotic Proximities (distance) Like all things in a universe in which time is definitely established as a fourth dimension, life is, and only can be, a reality of evolutionary nature and dimension. Physically and historically it corresponds with a function x which determines the position of every living thing in space, in duration and in form. Teiihard de Chardin (27) continumorph has a magnetism for the adjacent ones which is the power to organize wholes that have coherence and unity and not simply mere heaps. There is a harmonic proximity each element exerts on the surrounding ones. Each conitnumorph might be likened to a space ship having to maintain a certain orbit to maintain its altitude. We have a dualism of attraction vs. repulsion a push pull - antagonism vs. magnetism. Each distance each space conforms to a function x. This function can be observed in nature. ¦ , ¦ The issue is density vs. volume. The greater the volume a tree has the greater defining power. Each element requires so much elbow room. A large tree defines more than a |
