Unconscious Conscious Thinking
Does that statement even make sense? How does one unconsciously think while conscious? Although it is highly confusing and similar to Derrida's chapter of community without community, this statement does make sense.
Unconscious thinking has told me many things. One of the best examples of this is in dreams. Although unrealistic sometimes, my dreams told me much that I 'knew' but it was more of a hazy knowing, almost unknowing and making the knowing clear. Does that make any sense?
While on writing on the wall I feel as if I reached a state of unconscious thinking. I was no longer 'using' my brain like I would in science. I reached a state of mind where I could use my brain in an art sense. My brain was working so quickly that I wasn't questioning or analyzing what was happening. I let whatever happened happen and I didn't want nor try to stop it.
Uncovering the unconscious brain is something else entirely. For example, over the summer I kept on having this dream that I was falling with no end. Although I didn't know it until I looked it up, my brain was telling that I was overwhelmed. Looking back at it, over the summer I lost control of life, and this was what my dream told me. Maybe I should learn to pay more attention to my dreams, because it can really help me sometimes.
