English term or phrase: (edge / take a short cut) into form
Autistics linger precisely in the region that the rest of us pass through so quickly that we scarcely even notice, unless of course we lose our way. We ***take a short cut into form***, seeing ourselves surrounded by people and objects that we can readily categorise. [...]
But they, autistics, ***are always edging into form***, abiding in the midst of things where nothing is yet settled, placing in the foreground the welling of ever-varying experience before it succumbs to partition and categorisation.
What, then, if we were to start with ***the edging into form***, the welling of experience, the ecology of attention, the phenomenology of direct perception, of animate being?

French translation:percevoir doucement / rapidement
Explanation:
C'est la vitesse de perception du monde. La majorité des gens catégorisent les choses rapidement, on voit une forme, une silhouette et on la classe tout de suite comme une personne, un objet, quel type d'objet, etc. En revanche les autistes ne catégorisent pas aussi vite. Ils prennent le temps d'analyser de nombreux paramètres supplémentaires qui dépendent de leurs expériences précédentes, avant de décider comment classer les choses.
