A photograph is legible because you are outside the point of view implicit in its view. The place from where the scene is seen is what makes it possible to see, but the seer is not located in the virtual space that contains the view and the point of view. The point of view belonging to the image is subtly taken on, it is agreed to be entered into, it is assumed almost automatically, and when it comes about the scene is discovered, and not uniquely. If there weren't that freedom in the choice of taking it on, or of refusing it, then it couldn't be what it is. It is just so with embodied consciousness, each moment experienced by the subject that is you, a subject entered into, implicitly assumed in order to bring the event about. A three dimensional world can only realised from a four dimensional spatialisation, one not limited to point of view precisely so that internal points of view can be freely assumed. What makes this reality work is that the point of view can keep changing, keep being reassumed in new formations, guided by sense, not just in a bundle of inter-related physical spaces, but in all the forms of connection required by first- second- and third-person experiences.
