This tool for spatial interaction is increasingly abused in our current times. Why has it become so apparently unimportant to us? Image, as opposed to our tactile relation to the outside world, has realised new status. In exploring this the image we ourselves create will be looked into. \u2022 The key subject to be discussed in this project is how our mentality towards clothes has changed through the ages. My territory will be the body but more specifically, the body\u2019s interaction, as an image, with others in an attractive or repellent way. We use the body, now more than ever, in a fleeting and ephemeral way. \u2022 Lacan \u2013 recognition of our bodies as our own from birth to adulthood. Tangibility and testing of our own bodies in infancy. \u2022 Descartes \u2013 measure and quantify. Removal of reality and questioning and reasoning of the unknown. \u2022 Debord and Baudrillard \u2013 false images as expressions of the spectacle of society \u2013 a manifestation that resides and guides our society through mediation of images as part of a capitalist society. \u2022 Harvey \u2013 space-time compression. Reduction of our ability to live in normal realms of space and time. Recalling of the past and other cultures in post-modern design as a stability to the culture we are currently a part of. FASHION \u2013 a constant flux showing examples of the state of society. Acceleration and deceleration of trends with changing rate of living.
