Performative actions that happen within a space to a certain degree
are the main component of the different processes that are constantly
changing. The question maybe should be What stands still? rather than What
moves?. The invisible layer of this constantly changing dynamics of different
ecosystems creates a perfectly balanced environment for living.
Fluidity as a notion is explained as the ability of a substance to flow
easily, expanding a bit on that notion we can imagine the fluidity as
something that is overcoming obstacles, but at the same time being
unsettled, unstable, something that is always moving, always changing.
The circulation pattern of these processes considering size, rate,
nature, substance, and sequence, are always there, rearranging and creating
a chaotic order. This “chaotic order” gives coherence to actions by
imposing its learned order to be implemented into the environment.
What moves? Processes of movement create a flux, which can be
measured, and visualized but above all, can be felt. Every action happens
as a part of a force or a condition that is pushing towards that action.
The movement of people, cars, water, and the wind is all part of physical
movement, which are creating formal fluid processes. Invisible
movements such as thoughts, senses, emotions, and perceptions create
a complex network of energy that connects to the network of physical
movements. What stands still? should be a much more complex question,
because maybe what is standing still in a way is creating the network
of what moves. Conditions set by the elements that are remaining in a static state sometimes can be a barrier that is blocking the smooth flow
of the processes, and other times acting as a catalyst to initiate these
processes.
