Cartografias do inconsciente

Abstract

The present work explores the concerns that have arisen in the field of clinical psychology, precisely in the ethical and political implications of the psychoanalytic unconscious. Research problem: how does that thing, which we call unconscious, work? It begins with 4 vectors: the psychedelic experience, the artistic process, psychoanalysis and philosophy. In psychedelia, we point out the dangers, the misunderstandings, the alienating fascinations, the bankruptcies of the surface, as well as the power of new assemblages between bodies that produce sages, auditions, ways of life. In other words, multiple effects on the production of an experimental unconscious that boils with micro-perceptions, but also requires a program, an activity to sustain exploration. In the artistic process, the Van Gogh case is taken. His letters and pictures are examined in an attempt to evaluate the conditions that inflamed, accelerated, and those that paralyzed his creation, making him ill. It is possible to notice that if, on the one hand, the painter's desire suffered control of the gregarious forces of the family and of the capital, on the other hand, it was involved and composed of elements which were immanent in his environment: the mistral wind, the sun, the wheat fields, the sunflowers, the dead painters. There arises another power of the unconscious: precisely virtuality. In the third vector, two concepts of psychoanalysis are problematized: the perverse-polymorph (codified by the structural logic) and the Principle of nirvana (mortified by the repetition of the same.), considering its consequences for analytical theory. A micropolitical and vitalistic unconscious is then outlined. Finally, in the passage through fluctuations of mood and confused ideas, in the work on the affections, the body without organs emerges as a conceptual personage, a theme buried in the psychoanalytic institutional history with its conception of desire based on lack and negativity. In the last vector, which has been called philosophical, even though it concerns more specifically the transcendental empiricism of Gilles Deleuze, the aim is to trace the obscure genesis of this potential body before it even appears, considering the conditions in which it comes, examining the possibility of using it as a measure determinable by its procedural exercise, implicated in the incessant evaluation of our compositions.
