Abstract
In this chapter Cultural Commons are placed within the framework of sociological aesthetics in order to grasp the imagery underlying this emerging social form. A series of questions revolve around the issue: what Cultural Commons reveal of the representation of collective life? From which imaginary do they emerge? What subjective orientation do they bring? Why, at the some point, they become an object of interest and debate? Since Cultural Commons are material, immaterial and imaginary spaces, we will consider them as a tension to re-space social experience.
