Every “thing” is a frame. It is precisely the perspectival frame which gives it a “thingness.” One thing is separated into isolation from all of reality by inscribing borders around it. This is the basic primary function of human cognition. In our oldest story, the Biblical account of creation, Adam is to care for creation and the primary action of which we are told he is capable is naming the animals. To name is to create a frame by separating the ‘thing’ from the rest of the world around it. It is by means of these frames that all thought takes place and models of reality are constructed in our minds. These models of reality afford us the opportunity to interact with our world. Thus, frames are neither subjective or objective but trans-jective. They allow us both to perceive and change our arena, but they are not the “I.” In short, these frames are the means by which you perceive your life and everything about “you.” The aggregation of all frames together is the construct of reality, everything you think you know. A model of how to relate to our frames is presented below.
