A typical key consists of two parts: the

blade, which slides into the keyway of the

lock and distinguishes between different

keys, and the bow, which is left protruding

so that torque can be applied by the user.

The blade is usually designed to open one

specific lock, although master keys are

designed to open sets of similar locks.

Keys provide an inexpensive, though

imperfect, method of authentication for

access to some rare essentials of life,

like meaningful space and emotions.

A key is sometimes an essential tool of

modern living in the developed world.

public space

A p u b l i c s p a c e refers to an area or place that is open and accessible

to all citizens, regardless of gender, race, ethnicity, age or

socio-economic level. One of the earliest examples of public spaces

are commons. For example, no fees or paid tickets are required for entry,

nor are the entrants discriminated based on background. Non-government-owned

malls are examples of ‘private space’ with the appearance of being ‘public space’.

Public Space has also become something of a touchstone for critical theory in relation to

philosophy, (urban) geography, visual art, cul-tural studies, social studies and urban design. Its

relevance seems to become more pressing as capi-tal encloses more and more of what were thought

of as ‘commons’. The term ‘Public Space’ is also of-ten misconstrued to mean other things such as ‘gath-

ering place’, which is an element of the larger concept.h t t p : / / w w w . a m a z o n . c o m / g p / r e a d e r / 0 0 2 9 1 1 8 1 1 5 / r e f = s i b _ d p _ p t # r e a d e r - l i n k

When you try your best but you don’t succeedWhen you get what you want but not what you need

When you feel so tired but you can’t sleepStuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your faceWhen you lose something you can’t replace

When you love someone but it goes to wasteCould it be worse?

Lights will guide you homeAnd ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down belowWhen you’re too in love to let it go

But if you never try you’ll never knowJust what you’re worth

Lights will guide you homeAnd ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your faceWhen you lose something you cannot replace

Tears stream down your faceAnd I

Tears stream down your faceI promise you I will learn from my mistakes

Tears stream down your faceAnd I

Lights will guide you homeAnd ignite your bones

And I will try to fix you

NOMAD LAND.

I’M LOOKING THRU YOU where did you go I thought I knew you, what did I knowYou don’t look different, but you have changed I’m looking through you, you’re not the same

Your lips are moving, I cannot hearYour voice is soothing, but the words aren’t clearYou don’t sound different, I’ve learned the game.I’m looking through you, you’re not the same

Why, tell me why, did you not treat me right? Love has a nasty habit of disappearing overnight You’re thinking of me, the same old wayYou were above me, but not todayThe only difference is you’re down thereI’m looking through you, and you’re nowhere.

- The Beatles, 1967

In recent times physics and astrophysics have

come to play a central role in shaping the un-

derstanding of the universe through scientific ob-

servation and experiment; or what is known as

physical cosmology shaped through both math-

ematics and observation in the analysis of the

whole universe. In other words, in this discipline,

focuses on the universe as it exists on the largest

scale and at the earliest moments, is generally

understood to begin with the big bang (possibly

combined with cosmic inflation) - an expansion of

space from which the Universe is thought to have

emerged ~13.7±0.2×109 (13.7 billion) years ago .

Between the domains of religion and science,

stands the philosophical perspective of metaphys-

ical cosmology. This ancient field of study seeks

to draw intuitive conclusions about the nature of

the universe, man, god and/or their relationships

based on the extension of some set of presumed

facts borrowed from spiritual experience and/or

observation.

Global citizenship is the concept of citizenship on a global level. It

is a moral and ethical disposition which might guide the understand-

ing of individual or groups of local and global contexts and their

relative responsibilities within different communities. It is distinct

from the concept of world citizenship.

A feeling of global citizenship is motivated by lo-

cal interests (love of family, communal fairness, self-interest) as

well as global interests (a sense of universal equality), and care

for fellow humans as well as human rights and human dignity. As

participatory action, global citizenship entails a responsibility to

reduce International inequality (both social and economic), refrain

from action that hinders individual well-being, and avoid environ-

mental degradation. The notion of global citizenship is linked to an

understanding of cosmopolitanism.
