Beyond Heidegger
Genes, Technology, and Apocalypse
This book offers offers a critique of a certain humanity's current predicament in its relationship with technology
The Uncanny
This paper delves into the concept of the uncanny, a theme that has fascinated scholars across multiple disciplines, including psychology, philosophy, literature, and film studies. The study’s primary goal is twofold: to examine the theoretical foundations of the uncanny as explored by Jentsch, Freud, and Heidegger, and to propose a new perspective on the uncanny within the context of modern technological and urban developments. The paper argues …

Why Overcoming Heideggerian Intellectualism Should Precede Overcoming Metaphysics
Uncanny Brains versus a Lived-Body
The natural sciences seek to explain all natural phenomena, including human beings. This lofty objective encompasses the scientific project in all its glory, within which brain science constitutes an integral part. Essentially, however, neuroscientists not only seek to achieve a greater understanding of how the human brain works but rather, and perhaps mainly, aspire to understand human consciousness, that is, the subjective experience. According…
The destructive nature of severe and ongoing trauma
This paper argues that severe and ongoing trauma (SOT) can lead to impairment at the level of the minimal self (MS), which is the core element in the structure of subjectivity. In the long-term, such impairments can result in complex post-traumatic stress disorder (CPTSD) and schizophrenia. The paper tackles this issue while trying to create meaningful bridges between phenomenology and neuroscience
Investigating the Origins of Body-Disownership
This paper describes the phenomenology of the prisoner in the Gulag. In this extreme situation, the prisoner is reduced to the body-as-an-object and, as a result, develops a strong sense of hostility towards the body. In cognitive terms, this mechanism can be defined as body-disownership
When Body Image Takes over the Body Schema
Jean Améry
Becoming Nonhuman
Based on the experience of innocent individuals who were arrested and sent to the Gulag, this paper examines the transformation from being human to being nonhuman. It suggests that during this process, one shifts from belonging to nonbelonging. As a result, similarly to Winston Smith–Orwell’s hero in the novel Nineteen Eighty-Four, the prisoner is rebooted and reborn as an object belonging to the Gulag. In this situation, the prisoner internalize…
Mindfulness and Trauma
The traumatic experience and the meditative experience differ in many respects. For instance, it is possible to suggest that while a sense of helplessness is the most important feature of the traumatic experience, meditation does not involve a similar sense of helplessness. Furthermore, while trauma is shocking and horrifying, meditation is considered to be constructive and efficient in reducing stress and improving welfare. Yet, with this in min…

I Am Not My Body, This Is Not My Body
How does it feel to lack a sense of boundaries? A case study of a long-term mindfulness meditator
Traumatic memories as black holes
Despite impressive scientific advances in the field, it appears that we are still far from achieving a full understanding of traumatic memory. Yet because of the strong link between posttraumatic symptoms and the nature of traumatic memory, improving our understanding of this issue is of great importance. To this end, open-ended interviews were conducted with 36 individuals who had been victims of terror attacks and afterward developed posttrauma…
Traumatic and Mystical Experiences
This article examines the similarity between the mystical experience and the traumatic experience, the latter involving a fundamental threat to life or bodily integrity. Despite the necessary caution and reservations, there are many similarities between these two kinds of experience. Indeed, the resemblance is not restricted to a phenomenological description but is far more deeply rooted: a result of the subject’s encounter with nothingness. This…
