Places

Places are theatres, but Space is a memory of a film.

Places are possible, but Space is necessary

Places are historical, but Space is radical

Places are illuminated, but Space is light itself

Places are inhabited, but Space is immanent.

Places are completed and sold, but Space is never finished.

Both Places and Space are constructions.

Places are exchangeable, but Space is trajectories.

Places are commodities, but Space is their routes of exchange.

Places are mostly rooted while Space can be routed.

Places are no better than the Space they are imagined to be in.

Places love Space, and Space is not indifferent. But that’s as far as it goes.

The whole of Places is in Space, but in Places Space turns up for parties dressed as a quality.

Some Places aspire to be Space. Some have Space thrust upon them. But none of them are Space.

Without Places Space would be Nothing.

Without Places what would the holes of Space’s holeyness be in and where would its resistance hide?
