Essay / Research Paper Abstract
19 pages in length. Myriad philosophers, psychologists and sociologists have attempted to explain the inherent relationship that exists among the elements of aesthetic perception, awareness and time. Of those who have succeeded, the primary focus has been upon the sensual realm and the manner by which the passage of time can trigger enhanced sense awareness, as well as the sensual world eliciting an enhanced perception of time, which draws directly upon the experiential realm. As such, the sensual realm is looked upon as a way of enhancing aesthetic awareness in its sensual expression, which in turn trigger an enhanced awareness of the moment at hand and draws attention to the fleeting nature of existence that unifies all things. The writer discusses aesthetic perception as it relates to Kantian theory, art and physical beauty. Bibliography lists 16 sources.

ourselves, and others. Our perceptual capacities are not fixed; they are not static or one-dimensional. Rather, they grow and expand in relation to our own efforts and our
quality of attention" (Anonymous, no date). The senses are most attuned when time is involved, with a brief moment remembered for a longer duration than if it is the
same moment spread over a longer period of time, which serves to dilute the effectiveness of presence and the experiences intensity. With the sensation of permanence there exists a
