Rather then dividing them by how we experience them, I have grouped them by the\u00a0<em>primary material used which makes it an obstruction<\/em>. These are some notes on my thinking:<\/p>\n<p>1. \u00a0I have broadly separated the metal category into Inert and Active\/moveable. The latter group are able to change or alter in some way, either manually or by automatic\/remote operation.<\/p>\n<p>2. The Tape\/fabric category usually depends on the use of metal poles &#8211; but not always. The former could be stretched around other objects and still maintain some degree of obstruction-ness.<\/p>\n<p>3. The Printing\/paint category recognises the sign, symbol or word\/s as the material of the obstruction, rather than that of the object they are on. If the latter was blank, it would not be considered an obstruction in its own right.<\/p>\n<p>4. The Wood category is currently empty, but I will bring in objects from my daily Barriers iteration shortly.<\/p>\n<p>5. The stone\/concrete category includes objects cast in composite stone like the anti-sleeping bench featured here.<\/p>\n<p>6.\u00a0The Planted material category is also currently empty, and but I will bring in hedges and &#8216;security planting&#8217; from my daily Barriers iteration shortly. The giant Kings Cross planters had to go in the Metal category, for it was the metal that made them obstructions, not the planting.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-766 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.everythingmustbebeautiful.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/Obstruction-materials-s.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"566\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An experiment in re-organising my existing draft typologies of physical obstructions.
