Authors
The author proposes a personal reinterpretation of the psychoanalytic process, starting with subject temporality originating in early relationships with the caregiver within general complex non-linear dynamic systems. At each step (conscience - conscience of conscience - creativity) the author proposes, elaborating on the process previously expounded by Minolli (2015), the construction of subject temporality within self-(geno-pheno)-organization (Morin, 1980). This interpretation of the macro-process (a lengthy process in analysis) must be linked eventually to that of the micro-process, which is concerned mainly, but not only, with what happens in individual sessions or a group of sessions. To study the macroprocess, the object of this paper, the following points will be considered: i) temporal evolution of the I-subject over the course of its existence, with respect to both the surrounding environment and real life events that have taken place; ii) qualitative evaluation of patient-analyst self-awareness; iii) evaluation of the I-subject’s selfawareness path, considering aspects of consciousness - consciousness of consciousness (or self-awareness) - creativity. These points can play an important role in helping the I-subject take charge of its own path in a creative way, and direct it towards a new way of being, different to the previous one.
