- Seemingly like an account of the modes of spatial experience, Erwin Straus, in fact, tried to explain the temporal experience or the experience of time. Nevertheless, Straus stressed the importance of, with the aim to represent the primary lived experience (erleben) of space, emancipating ourselves from the conceptions of space prevailing in physics and mathematics. Another thing that I appreciate from Straus is that he told us that we, either, do not need to enter into the discussion of the psychological genesis and dominance of particular sensory fields, like the optical or tactile. [what a relief to me] This text is aiming to answer the question: “Does the spatial present itself in different in the various spheres of sensory experience – for example, the optical and acoustical – and are there different forms of motor activity and perception that correspond to them?”
