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.

RU342: RON OKUAKI LIEBER ON THE LONG JOURNEY OUT, PSYCHOANALYSIS, PSYCHEDELICS & POETRY: https://renderingunconscious.substack.com/p/ru342-ron-okuaki-lieber-on-the-long
Rendering Unconscious episode 342.
Rendering Unconscious welcomes Ron Okuaki Lieber to the podcast! He’s here to discuss his book of poetry The Long Journey Out (2023). https://amzn.to/44Gsery
Ron describes his journey from a restless youth to a career in psychoanalysis and poetry. He recounts a transformative psychedelic experience in his teens, which led him to explore literature and poetry. Lieber joined the Peace Corps in Costa Rica, where he deepened his interest in culture, language and the human condition. 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

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.

RU339: EMMALEA RUSSO & VANESSA SINCLAIR ON PSYCHOANALYSIS, DREAMS & LIFE AS ART
Rendering Unconscious episode 339.
Emmalea Russo is here to discuss her ongoing course PSYCHO-COSMOS and the upcoming workshop we are hosting together DREAMS AS ART: Freud, Jung, Lacan
In this discussion we dive into Emmalea's year-long class, "Psycho Cosmos," which explores the intersections of psychoanalysis, astrology, and art. The class features visuals, slides, and conversations, and has attracted a diverse group of artists, astrologers, and psychoanalysts. We highlight synchronicities, such as references to Freud’s seminal dream “Irma’s Injection” and Louise Bourgeois’ spiders, and discuss the astrological significance of Neptune entering Aries. We discuss our upcoming workshop on Freud, Lacan, and Jung, and their relationship to art, where we’ll explore dreams and life as creative expressions, and artworks as mirroring dreamwork. I also mention my upcoming classes on avant-garde art and psychoanalysis at Morbid Anatomy, and love for encouraging independent research and diverse perspectives.
EMMALEA RUSSO is a writer. She is the author of four books of poetry and her first novel, Vivienne, was published in 2024. She has taught at various institutions including Saint Peters University, Northeastern University, The Melbourne School of Continental Philosophy, and GCAS.

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.

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.

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/4l84P8qThe 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.The Transgender Psychoanalysts are Coming, Friday March 28, 2025, 6:30 PM, 81 Court St, Brooklyn.

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

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?

Rendering Unconscious episode 335.
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. The 2019 edition featured artwork by Alison Blickle, while the 2024 edition includes collages by Sinclair. The books cover diverse topics like violence, racism, and political issues, and are dedicated to the memory of queer poet and dear friend, Andrew Daul.

Rendering Unconscious episode 333.
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.
