Not This. Not Here. Not Now. is a collection of work from collaborators and institutions that seek to address the time needed to process philosophical concepts that are otherwise reductive. Often typifying things not in a way that are immediately familiar to use, the aesthetics of reading, thinking and reflecting exist some way outside of form, outside of place, outside of time.
These negations come from a place that exists, and yet, does not exist. If you know something, you know something. If you do not know something, it does not exist in your world. When we look at things with the wrong perception and do not understand what we see, we say it is the place of no-thing-ness. This comes from incorrect thinking. Everything is revealed to us as we desire it to be revealed to us, by our own definitions alone.
Our language and cognition in general presuppose a way to which each of us is committed by our separate past - our paths. Consequently, we should be aware that our most carefully considered conclusions might seem misguided had we experienced a different past.
