dream analysis as an art form? of course that makes sense…….as an art form the artist is blessed in varying ways with the gift to see ~

great insight you wrote….

The importance of the series is huge, and I love the album analogy. Crucial to Jung’s view of the interaction which gets established through this work is that both sides influence each other, it’s a two way street (see: Answer to Job). Through the emerging dialogue, the ego and the unconscious in a sense clarify their positions. From this perspective, you need not “fear” a false interpretation as the following dreams will work to correct or clarify the unconscious position.

Thanks for such an interesting comment.

I’ve never felt myself to be too great at dream analysis… but Jung also talked about collecting a mass of dreams, and through that learning the language of the dreamers dreams… and wasn’t it Reich who pointed out that dreamers dream languages would often conform to the school of the analyst?

But I am an artist.. and I do like to see a lot of an artists work… to peer into what’s perhaps really going on in there work..

It’s maybe a little off topic but.. someone was posting some stuff about the death of the album.. the rise of the mash up, personal play lists, and all that.. anyway.. this was striking to me as I just finished making an album… and I’m not terribly in love with any of the individual tracks, but as a whole I really love it.. and I think that that has to do with… this sense of it being like a a collection of dreams in a sense..

I’m not sure how this adds to the conversation here.. accept maybe thoughts on the collective consciousness of our times, un or other wise… Though it makes me think of of Freud more.. and the channels thoughts must travel to dawn on us, and the impact those channels have on the content of our thoughts.. which I suppose has everything to do with dream analysis and symbolism?

I think I am starting to “get it,” the association of panoramic (though frequently empty) landscapes, the fascination with the psyche and Jung’s observations on it. Interesting stuff. Do you happen to know my friend Kathy Myers?
