Space colonization

By way of contrast, in postmodernism a lot of aspects of life are shown as constructs of society. Manzanar for example, relied on highways and heavy traffic from the inner city to help him “conduct” the congested streets of Los Angeles (53). The novel also included a map of the city, which also created a feeling of uncertainty since the maps were destined to change; unexpected, sudden changes that often times lead you to a dead-end-road. What is more important, is that the maps also had “layers”…

For example, on page 206 the Warden says, “ When I was little I'd watch my parents dig holes, every weekend and holiday. When I got bigger, I had a to dig, too. Even on Christmas.“ The fact that she is still digging after all this time, shows that the Warden really is determined. Another example, is on page 77, when X-Ray finds what seems to be a lipstick tube with the initials: KB. (Though the Warden didn’t know Stanley actually uncovered it.) She proceeded to dig all around X-rays hole…

Space - defined as “the distance from other people or things that a person needs in order to remain comfortable” - is a rudimentary concept invoked at various times in an individual’s life. Often it is regarded as a form of punishment, enforced through “timeouts” in the vestigial stages of childhood and through a rather gruelling process called “grounding” during adolescence. However, as the years progress, the concept of space is suddenly deemed as a positive, fundamental part of personal…

Some Space to Some Place There is a place that is neither here nor there. I have always been drawn to the in-betweeness. I have spent so much of my life, whether spending time on the airplane or learning new language, exploring places I have never been. When I first travelled internationally at 7, everything was unreal–sitting on a chair for 13 hours, looking out the tiny rounded window to see endless view down below, calculating time lag. Ever since that day, I was always waiting and wanting…

they argue that the mind and the brain are two distinct entities. Since the mind is not located in physical space according to Dualists, then one is left wondering how then it can cause or affected something that is located in physical space. Again applying Leibniz Law, this would seem to mean that if A causes B, then A must be located somewhere in space and B must be located somewhere in space. For A to affect B, they must be physically next to each other in some way. Therefore, there is no way…

Students at the Irondale High School would get to class on time and risk the chances of been marked tardy and get a detention if the school district increases the passing time from six to eight minutes and have staffs and hall monitors regulate the flow of traffic. Although some teachers think the passing time is sufficient and should remain the same,students are finding it more diificult to adjust to these new changes. The overcrowded hallways are not the only problem students at the Irondale…

was tended to be outside and between the rocks line up they have a gap or space. It was intended for the rocks to be separated in a certain kind of way giving them space throughout the circular format. The Stonehenge has a diameter about ninety eight meters plus the ditch around the Stonehenge is about six meters to. The Stonehenge is surrounded by a bank and ditch but their is space between them in a circular form. The space was needed between the rocks to capture the shadow the sun gives so…

bows outwards to form the large lecture hall and library within. However, this does not simply mean that this section of the building fits O’Gorman’s generalizations for additive buildings. The other three arms show the divisive method where office spaces are divided. Furthermore, in ABC of Architecture, O’Gorman uses the additive plan of the Richards Medical Research Laboratories as an example of additive architecture.4 In this plan each of the rooms is placed sequentially and the outer borders…

into focus the choices we, as humans, need to make about what is important versus what is not concerning the various borders in our lives. In the article, “A Very Bordered World,” Alexander Diener and Joshua Hagen explain that we all create these spaces that separate, but they…

designated spaces that are limited to people of a certain type or standard. Certain geographical spaces only host certain types of events and ideas, however, space has become smaller in physical culture due to the interdependence and interconnectivity (Friedman 2016). Physical space, is a different entity. The areas where athletes perform are very specialized to provide ideal conditions for their respective sport. At first women were not even allowed in these specialized physical spaces. The…
