About

Tim Ingold, an up-and-coming anthropologist and social scientist, has an interesting perspective on the concept of lines. In one of his books, Lines, he presents the idea that lines are not pre-existing entities in the world, but rather processes and activities themselves. Ingold himself shares some of his research on how lines are woven into as the fabric of the world, connecting objects, people and ideas.
