For decades we have witnessed the emergence of a media age of
illusion that is based on the principles of physics-the
multidimensionality, immateriality, and non-locality of the unified
field of energy and information-as a virtual reality. As a result,
a new paradigm shift has reframed the cognitive unconscious of
individuals and collectives and generated a worldview in which
mediated illusion prevails. Exploring the Collective Unconscious in
a Digital Age investigates the cognitive significance of an altered
mediated reality that appears to have all the dimensions of a
dreamscape. This book presents the idea that if the digital
media-sphere proves to be structurally and functionally analogous
to a dreamscape, the Collective Unconscious researched by Carl Jung
and the Cognitive Unconscious researched by George Lakoff are
susceptible to research according to the parameters of hard
science. This pivotal research-based publication is ideally
designed for use by psychologists, theorists, researchers, and
graduate-level students studying human cognition and the influence
of the digital media revolution.
