Experience of space is where intuitions, or given perceptions, are from. Space is a priori because a condition of any possible experience is for the things which are being experienced to exist in space. Space is an essential element for experience because without space, experience is not possible. Also experience must happen in time. Time exists only if there is someone to experience it. With this rough overview of the transcendenta

Kant titles the section to which the synthesis belong, “The a priori grounds of the possibility of experience.” To describe the grounds which make knowledge and therefore experience possible is what he is trying to achieve in the synthesis. “Apprehension of representations as modifications of the mind in intuition, their reproduction in imagination and their recognition in a concept” are the “three subjective sources of knowledge which make possible the understanding itself, and consequently all experience as its empirical product.” Kant also speaks of pure concepts of understanding as the a priori grounds.

The Synthesis of Reproduction in Imagination begins with saying it is an empirical law for representations sequenced through time to be associated with each other. Even in absence of one the mind can realize the other due to this rule. Although this misses the point of the synthesis it is helpful in what follows.

l aesthetic now we may move on to the three synthesis of the transcendental deduction.

The synthesis of apprehension and the synthesis of reproduction are bound together because they both makeup the transcendental acts of the mind.

The Synthesis of Apprehension in Intuition begins with the notion that our representations, ideas and concepts otherwise known as knowledge, belong to inner sense. This is true whether the origins of these representations are a priori or empirical because they are both modifications of the mind. Assuming this to be true, our representations are also subject to time, because time is a formal condition of inner sense. Kant states that this is a condition that s fundamental to what follows.

Otherwise saying, we must use our imaginations to construct the past and future in order to be aware of the now. These things must happen simultaneously.
