Rendering Unconscious episode 311.
Drs. Kasper Opstrup & Tim Rudbøg are here to discuss their upcoming conference A Tide of Ghosts: Esotericism and Art beyond Fact and Fiction, a two-day multidisciplinary conference exploring how the use of fictionings, in various entanglements of art, politics, and esotericism, bleeds into the real and how the two relate, if they ever are truly separate. To be held through the Department of Cross-Cultural and Regional Studies at Copenhagen University, Denmark on October 24-25, 2024. REGISTER HERE
Rendering Unconscious is also a book series! The first two volumes are now available: Rendering Unconscious: Psychoanalytic Perspectives vols. 1 & 2 (Trapart Books, 2024).
Dr. Sinclair contributed a piece on “Freud and the Occult” to The Fenris Wolf 12 (Trapart Books, 2024) edited by Carl Abrahamsson.
