ARCHITECTURE
May 18
SUMMARY
This dialogue delves into the perception of reality through theobservation of constant movement in the universe and how it defines ourtangible experience of the world. Matías and his interlocutor explorethe idea that everything is in constant motion, although we perceive itas static due to the limitations of human perception. They discuss howobjects large and small, from astronomical precessions to subatomicparticles, move in frequencies that escape our direct vision. Throughthis metaphor, the text advocates for a deeper understanding of ourenvironment and ourselves as part of a cosmos in constanttransformation. This perspective invites reflection on the ephemeralnature of existence and how, like the matter surrounding us, we too arein a perpetual flow of change and development, urging a life lived withawareness of our insertion into a dynamic and living fabric.
QUOTE
