CHRONOTOPES DESIGN. A narrative score with different time notations

We in the 21st Century must juxtapose the forms of space that the 20th-century design tradition has trained us in with new forms of space-time design that are becoming more and more linked to the simultaneity and ubiquity of the observer-actor in the physical-digital world. In shaping processes of decomposition and recomposition, fragmentation and re-appropriation of experience, the contemporary spatio-temporal perspective lends itself to analysing different contexts in constant evolution and movement. Hence, we must grasp the diversity of spatial forms and time requirements that express the different behaviours of the human being in the Age of Access, made explicit by the different activities carried out in a continuum between the physical spaces, which are experienced and frequented in everyday life, and the infinite expansion in the Web space that we casually cross, mediated by our inseparable personal devices (computers, tablets, smartphones, etc.). In this physical-digital ‘four-dimensional continuum’, we have very quickly learnt to live, inhabit and socially relate to other observer-actors.
