>a liminal space. It's just the thing you have to do to get from inside one building to another
This is two separate things. First I declare outside has become a limimal space. Second, I explain in brief why I believe that it deserved to be called that. This is not a point about liminal spaces, it's a supporting statement as to why I think outside has become one.

>>it's a necessary evil as far as most people are concerned and if they could simply teleport from inside one building to another, they would
this is a reinforcement of the second point, trying to remove as much abstraction as possible to emphasis how little value people place on being outside
>Nobody wants to be outside in street photography anymore
This is a summary of my position and points.

>I don't agree with your points, and answered accordingly.
No you claimed I made statements about liminal spaces, when really I only made one, that reality has become one for most people. The rest aren't opinions about liminal spaces, just objectively what the word means.

You can disagree that people treat the outdoors that way. But you didn't, you agreed that it is a liminal space, but people want to exist in it, but you can't exist in a liminal space because it ceases to be liminal. The answer is paradoxical.

It speaks to my point earlier about the genre being chronologically displaced. Everyone has buried their head in the sand and pretends that it's still the 20th century. It's why the retro-larp aesthetic exists and why it's targeted at street photographers. Because the genre literally can't synthesize the reality it finds itself in without destroying itself.
