Knowing how to look is a completely new system of spiritual surveying. Knowing how to look is a means of inventing. And no invention has been as pure as that created by the anesthetic gaze of the naked, lashes of Zeiss; distilled and attentive, immune to the red rash of conjunctivitis.

Nothing is more Favorable to the osmoses which occur between reality and surreality then photography which, with the new vocabulary that it imposes, offers a lesson simultaneously in maximum liberty. Photographic data are the process of operating- s much photogenically as by the revision of the external world, which each time becomes more and more an object of doubt, and at the same time offer further unusual possibilities for a lack of cohesion

The Surrealist revolution has claimed: atomic writing - the surrealist text - the predream images - dreams - mental alienation - hysteria - the invention of chance - the hypnotic dream

By solidifying these delinquent dreamy images, Dali Metaphorically enacts the surrealist desire to make dream tangible. The truly Paranoid-critical moment comes when the calcified images begin to liquefy and a stream of associations flows forth.
Objects are realized representations of inner states of trauma and neurosis as well as more bang samples of concretized irrationality

Salvador Dali: OUI- The Paranoid Critical Revolution Translated Yvonne shafit,

In Effect the ground glass divorces us from the realistic appearances of the world as seen in the rectified small-camera finder. The ground glass image thus exists as a thing in itself, specifically photographic and not merely a simulation of the “view” before the camera”

Hartmann: dreams may function like psychotherapy, by "making connections in a safe place" and allowing the dreamer to integrate thoughts that may be dissociated during waking life.

Hartmann, E. (1995) Making connections in a safe place: Is dreaming psychotherapy?

Confabulation is the formation of false memories, perceptions, or beliefs about the self or the environment as a result of neurological or psychological dysfunction. When it is a matter of memory, confabulation is the confusion of imagination with memory, or the confused application of true memories.

All these formulations have been possible thanks to the initial distinction between different irreducible types of genesis and structure: worldly genesis and transcendental genesis, empirical structure, eidetic structure, and transcendental structure. To ask oneself the following historic-semantic question: "What does the notion of genesis in general, on whose basis the Husserlian diffraction could come forth and be understood, mean, and what has it always meant? What does the notion of structure in general, on whose basis Husserl operates and operates distinctions between empirical, eidetic, and transcendental dimensions mean, and what has it always meant throughout its displacements? And what is the historico-semantic relationship between genesis and structure in general?" is not only simply to ask a prior linguistic question. It is to ask the question about the unity of the historical ground on whose basis a transcendental reduction is possible and is motivated by itself. It is to ask the question about the unity of the world from which transcendental freedom releases itself, in order to make the origin of this unity appear.
