Another Perspective

Being Defining Reasoning

When situations affect everyday life, we find new meanings

And what once was is now that and more, or never to be seen as a singular use again

An Update

An intertwining of worlds

A digital within a physical

Images through a screen creating a tangible world

...Metaverse

Where are we dwelling?

Are we no longer in search of it?

Only excepting the minuscule of moments that are captured in spaces with no names

Because we can have it anywhere with the right accommodations

Accommodations that are easily placed, accessed, and conjured

Demanding and controlling through a screen

An inevitable advancement and an understandable one for recent time

But in the attempt to reconnect there is interference In the new age of tech and communication

Yet there is still the urge for physicality, Until there is not

The processing of space, location, safety, staying reasonable, having ease

As we open new ways of being, there are attempts at balancing both ends of the spectrum

What is receding and what is emerging is changing in all aspects of work and life

Designing for the living with means of place, when the term is fitting into spaces that were never considered before

How are we dwelling?

In spaces

In locations of any distance

In reason of safety

In alignment to our everyday lives

Reasoning with ourselves so we are able to dwell

To live, to be free and at peace.
