Welcome to Rendering Unconscious – the Gradiva award-winning podcast about psychoanalysis & culture, with me, Dr Vanessa Sinclair. https://renderingunconscious.substack.com Rendering Unconscious episode 345. RU345: DR VANESSA SINCLAIR ON SCANSION IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND ART IN THEORY AND PRAXIS https://renderingunconscious.substack.com/p/ru345-dr-vanessa-sinclair-on-scansion For the latest episode of Rendering Unconscious Podcast, I was interviewed about my book Scansion In Psychoanalysis & Art: The Cut In Creation (Routledge), and my ideas behind the project. You can order your own copy of the book Scansion In Psychoanalysis & Art: The Cut In Creation (Routledge) HERE: https://amzn.to/4jMubrj The book explores the intricate relationships between psychoanalysis and various art movements, particularly focusing on the avant-garde. The text is structured into several parts, each addressing significant themes and historical contexts that shaped both psychoanalysis and modern artistic expressions. Throughout the book, Sinclair employs the concept of scansion—a method of analyzing rhythm and structure—to draw parallels between artistic creation and psychoanalytic processes. She argues that both realms engage in a form of cutting or disruption that reveals underlying truths about human subjectivity. By focusing on fragmentation, the manuscript illustrates how both art and psychoanalysis seek to reconstitute identity and meaning in a world marked by chaos and change. In conclusion, Scansion in Psychoanalysis and Art: the Cut in Creationpresents a comprehensive examination of the dynamic interplay between psychoanalysis and art movements, emphasizing the transformative power of disruption and the continuous quest for understanding the self in relation to the world. Sinclair's work invites readers to reconsider the significance of art as a vehicle for exploring the unconscious and the complexities of human experience.

He later studied at Columbia University and then the Center for Modern Psychoanalysis. Lieber's poetry, influenced by formal training and personal experiences, is described as formal and crafted. He emphasizes the importance of the unconscious in both art and psychoanalysis, and his work reflects themes of longing and loss. Of Japanese and Jewish lineage, Ronald Okuaki Lieber was born in Tokyo. He grew up as an army brat, moving every year until the age of 14 when his parents settled in Petersburg, VA. He graduated from the College of William and Mary with a BS in Biology, then served two years as a Peace Corp volunteer on the Nicoya Peninsula in Costa Rica. He returned to live in NYC and eventually graduated from the MFA Program at Columbia University. He later began psychoanalytic training at the Center for Modern Psychoanalytic Studies. After graduation, He became the Director of the institute and editor of its journal, Modern Psychoanalysis. He is currently in private practice and has completed training as a guide at the Center for Medicine Work in Philadelphia. https://www.ronaldokuakilieber.com He has a poetry reading May 8, 2025 at Unnameable Books, 615 Vanderbilt Avenue (located inProspect Heights, Brooklyn) at 7:00 with Todd Colby and Mitch Highfill, music by Flose & Aura. https://www.ronaldokuakilieber.com/events For those interested in entering into psychoanalysis with me, I provide remote psychoanalytic treatment online, as well as consultation services for those in psychoanalytic formation.

In this podcast episode, Carl Abrahamsson explores the concept of finding one's own path in life, emphasizing the balance between societal expectations and personal authenticity. Drawing on Daoist philosophy, he uses the metaphor of water, which flows effortlessly around obstacles, to illustrate the importance of adapting to one's natural inclinations rather than conforming to rigid structures. Abrahamsson argues that while traditions and systems can provide valuable guidance, they should not be mistaken for absolute truths. Instead, individuals should approach them with discernment and respect, understanding that their unique experiences shape their journeys. He highlights the significance of cultivating stillness, observing one's inclinations without judgment, and embracing paradoxes in life. The episode encourages listeners to practice non-attachment to outcomes and to develop a nuanced relationship with established frameworks. Ultimately, Abrahamsson asserts that the most authentic path arises not from rebellion or conformity but from a natural flow that honors one's true self while participating in the broader journey of existence.

In this podcast episode, Carl Abrahamsson explores the contemporary occult scene, emphasizing its dual role as both a reflection of our collective consciousness and a potential catalyst for social change. The term "occult," derived from the Latin "occultus," highlights practices historically shrouded in mystery. However, today's modern occultism has emerged into the open, resonating with contemporary anxieties and aspirations. Abrahamsson examines the rise of astrology and pop witchcraft among millennials and Gen Z, linking these trends to broader societal issues like economic instability and environmental crises. The commercialization of occult practices, from crystal shops to tarot subscriptions, reflects the tensions of consumer culture while modern aesthetics and technology integrate seamlessly with traditional practices, fostering a highly individualistic spiritual landscape. He argues that while the occult scene's diversity poses challenges for achieving consensus, it also allows for organic cultural influence. Shared themes—such as ecological awareness and psychological transformation—emerge across varied practices. Additionally, the internet facilitates connections among different traditions, enabling a dialogue that can inspire collective change. Ultimately, Abrahamsson posits that the contemporary occult is not merely escapism but a vibrant cultural laboratory where new models of meaning and community can evolve. In a disenchanted world, the occult's enchantment offers pathways to engage with pressing societal questions, blurring the lines between the occult and the mainstream and shaping our cultural future. https://thefenriswolf.substack.com CONTACT/SOURCE MAGIC MENTORSHIP: carl AT carlabrahamsson DOT com

In the second episode of The Fenris Wolf Podcast, Carl Abrahamsson explores the evolution of contemporary occultism and the relationship between artistic creation and magic. He reflects on how historical occult practices were structured and hierarchical, contrasting them with the more fluid and individualistic approaches seen today. Abrahamsson notes that current societal chaos and instability have led to the rise of personal practices that blend various traditions, emphasizing adaptability and individual empowerment. He discusses the importance of collective action and personal development, suggesting that true change comes from individuals working on themselves as part of a larger interconnected web of transformation. He introduces the idea that the "Great Work" involves each person recognizing their role in the collective, working not in isolation but as part of a greater pattern. Abrahamsson emphasizes the transformative power of artistic creation as a form of practical alchemy, arguing that art can facilitate profound personal and societal change. He shares a story about a mentee who found healing through creating music, illustrating how artistic expression can encode intentions and emotions that resonate on a collective level. He encourages listeners to integrate artistic practices into their magical work as a way to harness this transformative potential. Ultimately, he posits that the merging of magic and art is key to navigating the challenges of modern life. https://thefenriswolf.substack.com

O'Brien, and Tobias Wiggins are here to discuss their contributions to The Queerness of Psychoanalysis: From Freud and Lacan to Laplanche and Beyond (Routledge 2025) edited by Vanessa Sinclair, Elisabeth Punzi, and Myriam Sauer: https://amzn.to/4l84P8q The Queerness of Psychoanalysis: From Freud and Lacan to Laplanche and Beyond is an exploration of psychoanalysis' often complicated and fraught history with thinking about queerness, as well as its multifaceted heritage. Throughout the chapters, the contributors write about psychoanalysis' relationship with queerness, the ways in which queerness is represented in the psychoanalytic archive, and how that archive endures in the present and creates various disruptive effects both within and beyond the clinic. Each chapter from the global cohort of contributors approaches queerness from a different angle: they consider the literary aspects of queerness' presence in the analytic world; the clinical complexities of working with queer and trans people; metapsychological inclusion and exclusion of queerness, and many other subjects. Taken together these contributions constitute a decisive intervention into the psychoanalytic canon. They are an unabashed demand for accepting and furthering the representation and inclusion of queer, and in particular trans, people within psychoanalysis. It is a call for action to utilize and deepen psychoanalysis' enormous explicatory powers and bring together voices that have so far been denied a unity of expression, while critically reevaluating psychoanalysis' historical relationship to queerness. Written almost exclusively by analysts, scholars, and activists who identify as trans and/or queer, this important volume puts theory into practice by centering queer and trans voices.

RU336: BLANCHE BARTON ON DANCING IN THE GRAVEYARD: DEATH IMAGERY IN SATANISM & CARL ABRAHAMSSON PRESENTS MEMENTO MORI FOREVER: https://renderingunconscious.substack.com/p/ru336-psychoanalysis-art-and-the Join Rendering Unconscious at Substack: https://renderingunconscious.substack.com Rendering Unconscious episode 336. For this episode, we have two lectures from the Psychoanalysis, Art and the Occult series of events at Morbid Anatomy Museum: Dancing in the Graveyard: Death Imagery in Satanism by Blanche Barton and Memento Mori Forever by Carl Abrahamsson. Dancing in the Graveyard: Death Imagery in Satanism by Blanche Barton “Life is the great indulgence—death, the great abstinence. Therefore, make the most of life—HERE AND NOW!” So reads a phrase from the opening chapter of The Satanic Bible. But if Satanism, true Satanism as defined by Anton LaVey in 1966, is a profoundly life-loving religion, why all the black candles, skulls, and funerary trappings? The use of a coffin in the ceremony known as “L'air Epais—the Ceremony of the Stifling Air”, for example, goes well beyond a simple memento mori to remind ourselves how fleeting is our time here on Earth. The coffin becomes, like the Hanged Man in the tarot, a symbol of both death and transformation. Memento Mori Forever by Carl Abrahamsson For the human individual, there is no greater arbiter than death itself. Anxiety and fear are the very shadow-side fundaments of human religiosity, and nowhere is magical thinking as present as in thoughts and emotions touching upon (the fear of) death. One reason why human neurosis reaches ever new heights in contemporary culture is our distancing from death itself, and our painting ourselves into a corner of abstracted and compensatory imagination. How to cope? How to improve this highly detrimental neurosis and its dangerous side effects, such as monotheism? Carl Abrahamsson is a Swedish author, photographer, and filmmaker. He is also the editor and publisher of the highly renowned anthologies in The Fenris Wolf series. https://amzn.to/4bFDWnP Follow him at Linktree: https://linktr.ee/CarlAbrahamsson The Fenris Wolf Substack: https://thefenriswolf.substack.com An Art Apart Substack: https://anartapart.substack.com Blanche Barton is the present Magistra Templi Rex of the Church of Satan, having been a member for 45 years.

In this episode, I discuss my recent trip to the London, the highlight of which was my pilgrimage to the Freud Museum, where my husband, Carl Abrahamsson, gave a lecture on the films "Seconds" (1966) and "The Substance" (2024) with Freudian cinephile Mary Wild as discussant. I am happy to say my visit to the Freud Museum gave me renewed enthusiasm for the field. The museum's existence is so significant for psychoanalysis, especially during these times of rising fascism, as it was where Freud when fellow psychoanalyst Marie Bonaparte helped him and his family escape Vienna. I then delve into my book series Rendering Unconscious: Psychoanalytic Perspectives, detailing its origins, contributors, and themes.

This discussion centers around the new book The Queerness of Psychoanalysis, which addresses the pathologizing tendencies of psychoanalysis in contrast to its liberatory potential. Contributors, almost all of whom are trans and/or queer, challenge traditional psychoanalytic frameworks, emphasizing flexibility and inclusivity, while exploring the intersection of queer theory and psychoanalysis. Specific chapters highlight experiences of transgender psychoanalysts, the role of drag in queer identity, and the need for psychoanalysis to reflect on its own practices, for example. This conversation also touches on the importance of embodied methods and the evolving nature of psychoanalytic theory. Geoffrey Hervey (they/them) is a community organizer, mental health professional, and professional drag artist. They have a master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Vanderbilt University and are currently pursuing a Psy.D at George Washington University. Their clinical interests center the mental health of marginalized groups of people from a collective liberation framework. As Sin Clair, they have performed in the Southeast U.S. to audiences of thousands and created the Lipsync Legend Tournament to benefit local community mental health organizations.

In the second episode of The Fenris Wolf Podcast, Carl Abrahamsson explores the evolution of contemporary occultism and the relationship between artistic creation and magic. He reflects on how historical occult practices were structured and hierarchical, contrasting them with the more fluid and individualistic approaches seen today. Abrahamsson notes that current societal chaos and instability have led to the rise of personal practices that blend various traditions, emphasizing adaptability and individual empowerment. He discusses the importance of collective action and personal development, suggesting that true change comes from individuals working on themselves as part of a larger interconnected web of transformation. He introduces the idea that the "Great Work" involves each person recognizing their role in the collective, working not in isolation but as part of a greater pattern. Abrahamsson emphasizes the transformative power of artistic creation as a form of practical alchemy, arguing that art can facilitate profound personal and societal change. He shares a story about a mentee who found healing through creating music, illustrating how artistic expression can encode intentions and emotions that resonate on a collective level. He encourages listeners to integrate artistic practices into their magical work as a way to harness this transformative potential. Ultimately, he posits that the merging of magic and art is key to navigating the challenges of modern life.

The first episode of The Fenris Wolf Podcast, hosted by bestselling author Carl Abrahamsson (editor of the The Fenris Wolf journal), explores the themes of occulture, magical thinking, and magico-anthropology. Abrahamsson discusses his long-running publication, The Fenris Wolf, which began as a fanzine in 1989 and has evolved into an eclectic anthology that examines the intersection of history, mythology, and contemporary issues. He introduces the concept of "Occulturation," where ideas and expressions transition from hidden to visible spheres, reflecting a collective awakening to societal challenges. The Fenris Wolf, as a mythological symbol, represents the necessary destruction of outdated cultural paradigms to allow for the emergence of new, healthier systems. Abrahamsson emphasizes the importance of embracing alternative perspectives, particularly in the face of existential threats such as climate change and social unrest. He argues that occulture and magical thinking can provide transformative insights and resilience, encouraging individuals to recognize their role as co-creators of reality. The podcast also addresses the limitations of academic frameworks, which may stifle the exploration of spiritual and mystical knowledge, advocating for a more open-minded approach to understanding human experience. Abrahamsson concludes by inviting listeners to engage with the Fenris Wolf community through a newsletter and mentorship opportunities, promoting ongoing dialogue around these vital themes.
