What does the space consist of?
Materially from concrete forms, things, objects, components - anything that is constructed, has real material, form, function, structure, surface, texture, density, weight - anything that exists, and we can touch it.
Intangible from the mental components of the space - imaginations, thoughts, feelings, emotions, words, associations, memories, experiences, habits, routines, methods, patterns, impressions, reactions - reflections of ourselves in the space, our projections.
Depending on the number of viewers in each space - as many invisible layers intermingle with each other Material and immaterial space define the framework of reality in which man lives, simultaneously overlap, flow through each other. The fundamental feature of space is therefore its spatiality - the simultaneity of mental events - the reactions of sensations and emotions that colour objective space. Feelings are what ground our knowledge of the world - they are what these spaces are made of at a mental level. Where, then, is space? Where does space end and man begin?
