The basic principles of interdisciplinary art are, besides the constraints and extensions of the time-space continuum, its (re)productive aims and being. Mechanisms of survival and methods of upheaval can unhinge the tension between activity and passivity and open a gap for exploration. Certain fields and defined goals are contributing the definitions of the humanistic approach to understanding the world, which embraced Cartesian logic. René Descartes established the doctrine of substance dualism on the division between mental and material substance – mental substance has no extension in space and the material substance cannot think. When verticals in this system mean to grow, but don’t expand the space, horizontals become a material flow without cause and consequence. Expanding the cause-consequence relationship could bring the mind–body position upfront, through a way of existing that incorporates an independent immortal virtual soul and a dependent mortal physical world. The dualism of our perception of “realm” and “virtualm” grows to many self-attracted elements that structure flows and raise questions about species and alluvium. Towards a consciousness that is irreducible and body that is nondegradable.
