The 3rd Point

by Clay Hakes

Most human organization and movement occurs on a two-dimensional plane.

This plane is used as a datum to orient oneself between the above and the below.

Ordinarily, this datum is the ground. The third cartesian dimension, otherwise known as the Z axis, then serves as an experiential realm through which easy navigation is limited primarily to our imagination.
It Provides mental hierarchies and allows for infinite rearrangement for our planet.


When the ground plane, or datum is removed, hierarchy is obscured and confusion ensues.


This planetary alienation evokes a remarkable catharsis, akin to floating in outer space.
Familiarity is banished and imagination is given full creative agency.
