Opis

Our modern age of nihilism, or meaninglessness, reaches its end when the bearer of meaning, Being, gradually concealed from view over the passage of centuries, is now completely forgotten. Objects are now understood only in terms of their efficiency and ordered-ness, or as mere enhancements to our lives, but never as "portals" to the infinite depths of Being. Three friends confront this 'catastrophe' and each undergoes a moment of inception in which a new configuration of the world becomes possible. Two of them attempt to bring this new configuration into actuality via an art form, while the third refuses and instead participates in the inevitable culmination of our technological civilisation. my essay, The Hidden Legacy of The Red Book, was first published in: Thomas Arzt (Hrsg.): Das Rote Buch. C. G. Jungs Reise zum "anderen Pol der Welt" Studien zur Analytischen Psychologie, Bd. 5, Konigshausen & Neumann, Wurzburg, Germany, 2015.]"
