Space

It is a word that has the most conceptualized meaning in order t make its existence and relationship cognizable. In each realm and field it is used&sbquo its meaning clarifies its existential and differential nature. For that reason&sbquo there remains a tendency to think it is extremely difficult to define space. For example&sbquo views indicative of pattern&sbquo such as "the condition of an object in space changes with time&sbquo" have made it into the most conceptual term in ideological revolutions and scientific views afforded by Newtonian mechanics. Moreover&sbquo things that induce changes in space&sbquo transcending the relationship between space and objects&sbquo have expanded to include formalized values such as information and currencies. In contrast to this meaning of the concept&sbquo Kant's critical approach turned it into a fundamental and technical term that suggests that the meaning of space should be recreated by posing the proposition&sbquo "Space is nothing but a subjective property that is attendant to the formality of intuition." Space as a term in design can be roughly and plainly divided into the following two categories. Physical space or "space as an object&sbquo" and mathematical space or "space that expresses the object." In other words&sbquo it is even thought that using the phrases "space for expression" and "space in time" stipulates the meaningfulness of space. In the concept of space before Newton&sbquo the meaningfulness of the cosmic and primitive space for expression that dissected cosmology has a degree of freedom liberated form Kant's critical view. Today&sbquo space as a concept is completely embraced in the space of expression. The space in time&sbquo on the other hand&sbquo has the point of view that "fullness" is existence and lack of "fullness" is space. That is&sbquo this "fullness" theory is the most convincing&sbquo in general&sbquo for the meaning of space as it first assumes space in which nothing is placed and then starts form the concept of placing things into it. However&sbquo it seems that placing information or "fullness" of information is about to acquire space's localized meaningfulness. I believe that we have reached the age in which phasic space and functional space redefine existence and reality through this concept.
