Basic human requirements of physical and virtual spaces and their implications

.

Chapter 3 in Understanding Personal Mobilities, 2023, pp 31-45 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: This chapter begins with an elaboration of the basic human requirements of physical space, fixity, and mobility, and the human needs that they satiate. This discussion will be followed by assessments of the relationships between fixity and mobility. We then will move to a similar interpretation of virtual space, attempting to expose the two basic human requirements of virtual space, namely access and connectivity, as well as the relationships between these two basic requirements. These expositions will be followed by an evaluation of the relationships between the human requirements of physical and virtual spaces, and their implications for human activity. Finally, a joint interpretation of human spatial requirements and human activities will be suggested, through the notion of human spatial pulses.
