Colour Grid 1000059

Unfortunately the full post of this is one that got lost in blogger's crash.
I'll try and recount a little:

I'd just spent some time settling into the wonderful studio space and making the most of the expansive
white wall space to spread out my thoughts... quite literally making and exploring spaces of thought.

The day takes shape.





Photographing the layout I noticed the strong contrast of left and right areas. Looking again from a different perspective on the sofa, I noticed the context of the whole space - the fall of light, triple-petalled fan and 4-part grid vent above my workspace.





Familiar patterns from modelling spaces during the Clean Space training... and here they are, synchronistically in situ above my workspace (which was chosen by default - I worked at a different desk the first afternoon, the day I came with all my 'stuff' to move in the other three were taken - so this becomes my space!). Making a colour grid of/about the space, I find myself using colours and white space in a more subjective translation of feeling rather than appearance. What emerges is in contrast to the colour and space of the  physical place. An interesting indication that the space of thought manifests differently for me in the digital and physical realms.


I made this colour grid at http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=51.171501,-115.562973 using http://twitter.com/gathererapp


Things I see here are:
My desk chair and studio wall

I notice:
Space to think is expressed differently in the physical and the virtual/digital realm

The colours in this grid are like:
Left and right, texture and space
