Why is the moving image so important in our lives? What is the link
between the psychology of Jung, Freud and films? How do film and
psychology address the problems of modernity? Visible Mind is a
book about why film is so important to contemporary life, how film
affects us psychologically as individuals, and how it affects us
culturally as collective social beings. Since its inception, film
has been both responsive to historical cultural conditions and
reflective of changes in psychological and emotional needs. Arising
at the same moment over a century ago, both film and psychoanalysis
helped to frame the fragmented experience of modern life in a way
that is still with us today. Visible Mind pays attention to the
historical context of film for what it can tell us about our inner
lives, past and present. Christopher Hauke discusses a range of
themes from the perspective of film and analytical psychology,
these include: The Face, The Shadow, Narrative and Story, Reality
in Film, Cinema and the American Psyche, the use of Movies in the
Psychotherapy Session and Archetypal themes in popular film. Unique
to Visible Mind, six interviews with top film professionals from
different departments both unlocks the door on the role of the
unconscious in their creative process, and brings alive the
reflexive critical thinking on modernity, postmodernity and Jungian
psychology found throughout Visible Mind. Visible Mind is written
for academics, filmmakers and students who want to understand what
Jung and Freud's psychology can offer on the subject of filmmaking
and the creative process, for therapists of any background who want
to know more about the significance of movies in their work and for
film lovers in general who are curious about what makes movies
work.
