I will describe general ideas that lead to the explicit constructions of models of emergent space. In particular, I will solve a pre-geometric quantum mechanical model for D-particles in a presence of a large number of background D4 branes, and show that it is equivalent to the classical motion of the particles in the ten dimensional geometry sourced by the D4 branes. If time allows, other cases will be briefly discussed as well.
