SPACE AND MATERIALITY 11 – 7/10/2019 – DEEPAK SIR

This class was a brief for our next assignment. We learnt how important contacts/connections are.
We usually share our space with people which eventually creates a physical contact.

INTERPERSONAL SPACE

Connection/contact is something that every person is in the need of. More the connection between people, more tangible relations between them.
Physical connection is the only thing a blind person takes support of. And for those who can’t listen, need a connection like lip reading or sign language.

We also listed out few activities that involve physical contacts. They are as follows :

  1. Sports
  2. Tailoring
  3. Concerts
  4. Markets
  5. Public transport
  6. Dance
  7. Religious Gathering
  8. Emergency
  9. Ailment
  10. Transaction
  11. Massage
  12. Security check
  13. Whispering
  14. Accidental space

Besides these physical connections, there are navarasas (9 rasas) which relate to the emotions of each being :-

  1. Shringaar – devotional
  2. Hasya – joy
  3. Adhbhut – vismay
  4. Heroism – zeal
  5. Shant – dhairya
  6. Karuna – shok
  7. Raudra – anger
  8. Bhayanak – fear
  9. Veebhatsa – disgust
