1 Comment on The Geometry of the Unconscious

The unconscious is not a hidden chamber beneath awareness, nor a secondary mind running in parallel. It is the emergent interior of dynamical, adaptive, relational complexity itself. It is what complex systems feel like from the inside. Any system capable of learning, anticipation, coordination, and self-regulation must generate internal structure that cannot be fully present […]

Human behaviour gathers around centres that never quite appear. We move toward meanings that seem solid, yet their solidity comes from the very motion that tries to reach them. The closer we look, the more the “centre” dissolves into the relations that formed it, leaving us oriented by something that exists only as a pattern […]
