Science-fiction and psychoanalytical game

Abstract

In this essay, the author takes on enlarging the imaginative conjecture of the mind’s pre-natal aspects in order to include a diverse set of thoughts without thinkers and savage intuitions or non-domesticated thoughts. This extension aims at extending psychoanalytical investigation from the vortex of mental growth. I suggest the idea that there is an optimal method for a creative transformation andone that allows evolution for these pre-natal aspects. This method is dream-like thinking that acquires during the diurnal life the condition of pre-conceptual. Thisis one of the axes of the essay. The difficulties in clinical practice with patients that developed an “exoskeleton”, in detriment to the contact of their emotional life, made me reassess dreams, the usage of models and the personification as instruments that equal “toys”. The terms science and fiction as related to psychoanalysis contain a reflection on instruments that, combined, provide a binocular view to the observation of the field of psychical reality. “Psychoanalytical game” alludes to the extension of the psychoanalytical method to analysing children, thus providing them with the means to communicate their emotional experiences.
