Erin Manning > Quotes

“We perceive-with objects, catching the edges of their contours, participating in the relations they call forth. Eternal objects make ingress into this object-world individuation, creating the potential for future relation. The objectness of the object is how it is felt relationally, rather than simply its actual matter-form. How it takes form on the nexus is how we prehend it. This quality of relation is what gives an object-event its potential infinitude. Perception is the force for the world's infinite unfolding.”
― Erin Manning, Relationscapes: Movement, Art, Philosophy

“To move is always to activate the time of the event, to feel-with the varying velocities of time's multiple rhythms. Time, moving us, moving time.”
― Erin Manning, Always More Than One: Individuation's Dance
