Illustration of Time Geography
The principle of the prism. Upper part left: the movement possibilities for an individual with no restrictions regarding future location; right shows a prism, the future space of opportunities for a person being at home and who has to be back home at a given point in time in the future. Lower part left: the prism shrinks as the now transforms future into past (from Now 1 to Now 2). Right: the shape of the prism changes if the person starts moving from home at Now 1.
