This site is about thinking thresholds.
Thresholds are states in-between. thought and space.
When you walk down the stairs and think about the sound of Karlheinz Stockhausen's Klavierstueck IX, Work no.4 and don't trip on the way you have experienced a threshold moment.
Thresholds are the in-between moments where nothing happens in perception but everything rearranges itself so that the next fragment of reality can be perceived as a whole.
It is called soglitude because it is terribly lonely, but then again, it is not. Everything is open to everything else and moves from one fragment to the next.
soglitude is formed from soglia, the Italian word for threshold and solitude, the word for aloneness.
This site explores threshold thinking to make it playfully accessible.
There will be contributions from others. I will edit them and put them in the Impressions section.
In the Impression section you will also find calls for contributions with threshold content games. Texts should have a threshold quality and report parallel experiences that engage both the mind and the body without losing ground. Or precisely, offer an account of how the mind gives way to the body and how the body loses ground, like when someone lifts you up and throws you on a bed. When you close your eyes in the same instant you might be surprised where you land.
In the Threshold News section I will write my own and add photos.
Thresholds challenge the moving and the stable parts of reality simultaneously. Although the energy in the universe remains stable, everything else changes and rearranges itself constantly, in the world and in our minds.
