affection through the net, involving different bodies and subjects, brings
a problem of support: affection needs bodies/subjects into which it 'crashes',
it 'traverse', goes through/into. The 'home' comes into the scene as it
configurates a definite space, an environment, a territory - an activated
field (Kurt Lewin?). An affective plane is difficult to grasp without
catching together bodies, supports. Affection can not be 'abstract', it
makes sense only in the 'real' world or real 'environment', being part
of concrete actions, engaging present surfaces. The concept of membranes is
very important: surfaces that design limits but that react continuously to
any environmental change. Membranes can select what passes through; they
respond. A territory is a membranous space, which is a sensible space (it
comes to me the image of the inside part of the ear...); I mean space or
environment or territory not as a container but as membranous local.
Home happens into constructing or making sensible layers, membranes at
any flat portion of a place. The nomad brings/activates that specific power.
Membranes, penetrables, environments, site specificity,..
