Energy & Space


Different activities exhibit different energies, for example a funeral is a more personal intimate energy. Chaps working on a plane is a more straightforward energy. A legal contract or courtroom has a more proper energy, and a football game is different again, more social.

Intimate Energy



Workings of the Mind, Intimate Energy within Essence Space




Intimate Energy in the Community Space

Music performances combine the intimacy and reflection of the essence and bring intimacy into the community space.



Symbol of Intimate Energy Values in the Community Space

The stature of liberty stands for the freedom and liberty (affairs of the essence) and represents these for an entire community, a nation; a gift from France.



Creative Plans in discussion at the Building Site, Intimate Energy Outdoors




Intimate Energy in the Domestic Space


Intimate energy is intense, creative and often understated. It can project into society, conceive of possibilities and combine the will to power and creation to bring things about. It is a human, intangible quality.

Intimate energy derives from Essence Space but is often seen when it is projected either into the Community Space, or into Domestic Space.

Straightforward Energy

“Straightforward energy in the Community” Going from A to B, direct in its purpose





A car running a red light is a “Straightforward” kind of energy, and resembles the same straightforward energy that might exist in trying to get to work on time, leaving the domestic space




Straightforward energy is compellingly meaningful like getting fuel in the tank. Often it’s the obvious needed to kept he activity going





Straightforward energy is active, practical and very real. Straightforward energy derives from the Domestic Space, an Individuals own personal surroundings, the pilot in his cockpit, or the driver in her car seat.

Proper Energy

Energies interact with “Dynamics”, or familiar patterns. The car running a red light can be “capped” by a police car (“proper energy” in the outdoors).




Proper energy may appear to be conservative, understated, but also is capable of being bold or radical.







The air traffic control tower represents the command and control. Things are in reference to an ideal of what’s proper & expected like the plane landing safely. Proper energy allows the interconnection of purposes. Once the plane lands, what happens next? There’s another avenue of straightforward action, getting thru the terminal. This interconnection does not happen by accident.




Proper tends to back up its authority one way or another with reward or punishment.




The proper energy allows events to be views from a “meta” level; a frame from which to see the rights and wrongs, how everything connects, the way to do every little thing relevant to regulation & control. It’s like a new higher level.




Proper energy can often appear impersonal, even grey and secretive.




Proper Energy derives from the Outdoors space, the expectations of what’s proper when seen by everyone.






Proper Energy steers events like working out the best place to put in a new set of traffic lights. It seeks to assimilate most relevant information and tends to be receptive to differing eclectic views, if only for the sake of appearance. Proper energy can appear to be “responsible” but often may be the opposite, showing little more than self-interest with a veneer of respectability. Proper Energy is wise to “the game”, what’s going on in the background, the undercurrents, and motives. A parliamentary debate might resemble children squabbling, though remains in reference to what “proper” is or ought to be.

Proper Energy derives from the Outdoors space, the expectations of what’s proper should it be seen in the broad light of day by everyone.

Social Energy

Provocative




Social energy harnesses networks




A business plan put into action, fusing a wide range of views together into practical planning and action can be just as much “Social” energy as ticker tape parade. Social energy tends to embrace financial considerations or motivates




Social energy attracts attention, can be flamboyant, flirtatious, exciting, and, cross boundaries, take action where others will not




Social energy appeals to both the heart and mind. It can be opportunistic.






Social Energy derives from Community Space; it infuses a sense of community involvement and spectacle into events.
