“Project Classroom Makeover”, “the imagination is engaged in making connections in all of those forms , as it is in anything we experienced” (Davidson 55). Imagination plays a key role in the human’s ability to associate with other people’s constructed spaces, whether it is through watching, listening or even reading it; it allows people to connect with seemingly unrelatable content. They can only do so, however, by latching onto relevant components as a base where their own imaginations can…

angry because she believes that space is actually what matters for geography; however, philosophers and social scientists made the space into a residual dimension. The over-focusing of time instead of space is the factor that Massey is angry about; she believes that space has dynamic and three-dimensional. Space changes the way of human beings’ lives. People cannot just simply consider space and flat and describe it without its context. 2. Massey says that space is “the dimension of things…

just empty space. This tells us infinity exists. We can understand infinity exists without understanding infinity. Outer space is the easiest place to see infinity, but it is actually the nature of everything in one way or another. The amazing thing is, it has to be true. It is a certain truth, and it is impossible to comprehend. That is mind blowing, but it's one of those things that brings magic to knowing the truth and life. It is a perfect example of knowing the unknowable. Inner space:…

Literature defines life space as people’s movement throughout their living environment.1 One article done by Lo and Colleagues (2014) investigated the relationship between life-space mobility (Life-Space Assessment, LSA) and incidence of fall and fracture within 4 years follow-up period among community-dwelling older adults in Alabama, U.S.2 Life-space change was defined as the difference in LSA score before and after a fall occurs. The research findings indicate that decrease in life-space…

The idea of a “safe place” first took off along with the feminist movement of the 1960s, providing a place for like minded individuals to gather; however, the 21st century saw a resurfacing of the same idea, applied this time as an ideological safe haven sheltering university students from exposure to sensitive topics. Articles published regarding this new notion of a “safe place” cites violations against the fundamental principle of universities in preparing its students to enter the adult…

Bridges once said, “Get back motherf*cker! You don’t know me like that!” and like Mr. Bridges, we all have our own sense of appropriate space when interacting with the people we encounter in our daily lives. Edward T. Hall, an American anthropologist, studied the phenomena of ‘personal space’ and devised a term for our interactions and reactions within this space, called ‘Proxemics’. Proxemics is defined by The Merriam-Webster Dictionary as “the study of the nature, degree, and effect of the…

be comfortable while each particular space is occupied. Intimate space extends 18 inches in every direction, personal space extends from 1 ½ to 4 feet away and social space extends from 4 to 12 feet. Beyond 12 feet is public space, which is open to all. The smallest zone extends 18 inches from the body in every direction and is referred to as the intimate space. This space is reserved for family, close friends and pets. Anyone else entering this intimate space causes discomfort. As a…

twenty talented staff members contribute daily to improving Cleveland’s public spaces in hopes of helping people connect with one another and boosting the city’s economy. However, LAND studio’s unique art oriented approach to urban development distinguishes it from ordinary urban development investors and firms. Art focused beautification –the addition of vibrant colors and designs– throughout the city’s public spaces is LAND studio’s fundamental principle aimed at creating places people can…

When it comes to space exploration and travel, two organizations usually come to mind, Nasa and SpaceX. To most, the organizations appear as the same with similar goals and agendas. They're competing to see who can initiate space travel first. Nasa and SpaceX work together as well, so wouldn’t they both be similar? Even though Nasa and SpaceX are similar, one difference, Nasa being a government agency and SpaceX being a private organization, creates many differences. The work life and goals…

The American space program alone has developed countless technologies that have improved and saved lives. NASA has had over one thousand successful spin-offs that include: Lasik surgery, Tempurfoam, improved kidney dialysis and water purification systems, sensors to test for hazardous gases, energy-saving building materials, and fire-resistant fabrics. When the Hubble telescope was launched in 1990, a flaw in the design of its optics produced blurry images. Three years later NASA was able to…
