ON THE PLANE

WORK IN PROGRESS

“Flying” is one of modern life's most (extra)ordinary experiences. On the plane, our perspective can take on a vastness and scope similar to pre-modern and contemporary narratives of deities. Simultaneously, on the plane, the rules of time and space, essential to modern frameworks of meaning, are physically distorted as we rush over the earth. An activity with such metaphysical possibility has become an ordinary act for most.

Could there be qualities of this experience that allow us to consider what connects the ordinary and the (extra)ordinary? As a spiritual and rational act? And how could this be captured?
