Aura refocuses attention on what makes this space a temple: its rituals. In The Disappearance of Rituals, Byung Chul-Han writes that rituals are to time what dwelling is to space. They structure time, they furnish it. Rituals make time habitable. The main quality of a ritual, of a temple, is its temporality. A temple is a space that slows down time, enabling introspection and a deeper experience of reality. Aura seeks to perceptually intensify the ritual and symbolic dimension of this space, enhancing its temporal qualities.
