When we speak of space we speak of separation.
We know that temporality may coincide with itself, in simultaneity, but in space, no two bodies (human or non-human) may occupy the same position. Yet it is this separation which also brings these bodies together, that forms the platform on which lived experiences are based. The separation between bodies is where atmosphere takes hold, which both subsumes and maintains this distance. Separation undoubtedly implies a failure, a negativity, but a productive one, one that mobilizes and enables. There can be no space, either physical, mental or social, without there first being separation.
