The Space and Time of Value

we have to look at position in three kinds of space-time:

  • absolute space-time: leasing a plot of land, the length of the working day, etc
  • relative space-time: the length of the lease relative to time taken for a tree to grow; access to transportation; etc
  • relational space-time: when you remodel your house, your neighbours house values go up; housing mortgages are valued based on a ton of factors (mostly opaque)
