1750 EDGE and OTHER SIDE -Gautam Shah
An Edge marks a difference. It is extremity where the prime difference is of being on the ‘other side’. The other side manifests, because, both the sides have been realized, though in a different manner. The edge is real on one side, but the other side could be unreal, impersonal, never ever experienced, or anti-thesis of this side.
Edges occur as horizontal layers or vertical divides, but sometimes without any known presence. There are many operative systems, which are effective without a neat edge line, such as the layers of atmosphere, the latitude-longitude lines, or concepts like Heaven versus Hell. Tools and devices locate hypothetical locations or flying tracks through GPS.
There are several cases where the edge is experienced, some distance away, because the scale is inappropriate for visualization of the definition.
Expressions like Art, Architecture, Dance, Drama, Literature, Music, etc. work on two fronts, form recognisable differences across various time or space sections, and then mask, camouflage, reveal or conceal the edges. Edges, here work to add or break the continuity.
The sensorial differences across the edge begin to be meaningless, if the edge itself is too consistent, like the horizon on the sea or desert.
These are many other edges like, hunger, tiredness, work capacities, reach measures, physical survival, change in postures. Edges are also in the form of remarkable events like death, birth, marriage, rewards, etc.
