Get the material check mug.The singer/songwriter Madonna's hit song "Material Girl" in the 1980's first used the term materiality in response to a reporters question about her hit song a decade prior. She described it in the interview: "...I feel materiality is part of who we are, the texture of our life. I just wouldn't be able to perform to my best without a real sense of it each time I appear on stage".
The materiality of our existence is one where lines, objects, and places have their own distinct awareness of themselves compared to the forms and feelings of adjacent spaces.
