The ideas are implicit and cyclical so i found myself turning inside out a few times, and have found clear analogies between the book and this BLOG site, i know i will be returning to it again it has some sort of strange energy.
This is an intensification of a concept of something or other; a territory.
When territories interact it facilitates movement.
For example, the types of territories interacting could be; self concept, popular culture, religion, language, Sensory information, Political climate,and economics....(or at a different scale: buildings) etc this would facilitate some limited or normalised possibilities for movement (it would be common sense) .
Throughout i have been trying to show that there are always alternative routes, and it is important to question why we do or why we are a part of something? and that normalised movement may not always be what we want as individuals. Especially when one of the interacting territories is opposed to peoples needs.
The Ring road is a good example of this.
When territories become subverted e.g. via mobile/communication technologies they undermine the system of interactions which previously controlled movement. The possibilities become endless.
Depending on your own perspective this either undermines the physical realm or reinforces it i'd argue it allows you to interact more with the physical environment, in situations that you would have previously played a passive role in; Listening to your ipod on the bus is a totally different experience to listening to natural/mundane sounds (although this has cultural differences; transcendence/immanence), what is next? subverting the visual field? merging with the internet? Price Charles would be pleased he could have his classical buildings with some old stautes of lions and some expensive crackers in the cupboard of every english man; i wouldn't care, i'd put on my 3-d goggles and piss over it all on my way to uni.
