Pychoannalysis - Simon jones | 11.10.12

The penis has a symbol of power. A positive symbol. 

  
We generally experience the 'uncanny' in an uncomfortable fashion. E.g horror films.









Max Ernst – collages c1930
Victor Burgin – ‘The Bridge’, 1984 

Rene Magritte – ‘The Red Model’, 1937 

Louise Bourgeois – ‘Spiral Woman’ 1952 


I think this lecture was delivered really well a although Simon did a good job I didn't really enjoy the theories, I found it quite technically heavy  and hard to understand in 3 hours. I will do some of my own research to try and fully understand the lecture to a acceptable level.
