Abstract
Twistors are reinterpreted in terms of geometric algebra as 4d spinors with a position dependence This allows us to construct their properties as observables of a quantum system The Robinson congruence is derived and extended to nonEuclidean spaces where it is represented in terms of dlines Different conformal spaces are constructed through the infinity twistors for FriedmannRobertsonWalker spaces Finally we give a 6d spinor representation of a twistor which allows us to define the geometrical properties of the twistors as observables of this higher dimensional space
