Concluding Remarks: Grids of Light, Darkness, and Intermediate Shades

This short chapter ties together some conceptual and empirical issues raised by the various contributions to this volume, in a creative rather than in a systematic way. This is in the light of this volume’s three thematic threads of “interdisciplinarity”, the “grid”, and the “arts.” By highlighting associations between the contributions while linking their varied “grids” to aspects of light, darkness and intermediate shades - this contribution has a merit of its own in pointing towards the leverage and new avenues for future exploration. These avenues are based on both crossdisciplinarity and on an essential off-the-grid viewpoint.
