In keeping with the MATRIX tradition of facilitating new,
open modes of analysis, Some Forgotten Place presents the work of eight contemporary international artists who explore landscape as an intellectually and emotionally charged space.
In other words, Ogden's
analysis of various descriptions
of experience is informed by two distinctions, both
of which apply to the noetic pole
of experience: a twofold distinction between nonsensuous and sensory
modes of experience and a threefold distinction
of what Whitehead calls «the feeling
of the ego, the others, the totality,» that is,
of self, other, and whole (PP 84).8 This comprehensive hermeneutical grid then permits an explanation
of what he claims is a «sense
of ourselves and others as
of transcendent worth,» as precisely an «awareness
of ourselves and the world as
of worth to God» (PP 86f) Y Ogden notes that such an evidently theistic explanation is not
open to empirical or experiential confirmation on either
of the two more restrictive descriptions which, as he observes, must either «refer the word God» to some merely creaturely reality or process
of interaction, or else., must deny it all reference whatever by construing its meaning as wholly noncognitive,» if they seek experiential illustration for such a sense at all (PP 80) 10
