3 "Consequently, this structure
suggests we should be transcending all the subjective viewpoints
adopted by different individuals. We are, in some sense, dealing
here with human communication. We are not, however, offering
a solution, but simply suggesting an attitude of mobility: both
physical and mental, and consequently, an ideological relativization
of the whole range of points of view." (Boissonnet,
1996, S. 7f.)
4 "In this piece of art, my intention,
beside paying hommage to Galileo, has been to emphasize something
which is quite obvious in our daily perception of the outside
world, but to which we are usually not very attentive: 'I
am here and I am looking over there, but when I am over there,
my Here and Now will have changed into my 'past
and over there'." (Boissonnet,
1996, S. 7.)
5 "The body that perceives and
displaces itself in space must a priori assume that the
manner in which I perceive the world now is hypothetically impregnated,
or should be pre-impregnated, with what I will perceive in a
short while, once I am over there. In other words, the world
as I see it, seen from there, is not such as it is, but
as it appears to be. This world is spatially and temporally
in a relationship with me. Thus we are moving towards a concept
similar to that of the photonic theory of light". (Boissonnet,
1996, S. 7.)
