@albertonuno7 Hi Alberto,

The short answer is a fascination with subjectivity and the unconscious mind. And while some of #Freud's and #Lacan's theories have been disproven, there is still much within their works that are useful and utterly fascinating, if one remembers to be as objective and critical as possible.

our key philosophical interest is #EvolutionaryPsychology and specifically we've begun to be most interested in the #evolution of ideologies, not just philosophically, but from an evolutionary perspective. This study necessarily includes the development of the unconscious and subjective experience.

Some of our subjective interest also include a secular #mindfulness and #meditation practice and we have observed that some of what Freud, Lacan, and #Jung, observed and theorized seems to be true within the subconscious, and what we can induce about our own subjective and unconscious constructs.

Likewise there are are centuries of data to be gathered from #Buddhism. One only needs to be patient and discreet enough to examine it as objectively as possible.

While some of the harder psychological sciences (adjacent) are producing fascinating and important findings from the empirical realm, mindfulness for example, when it comes to the #evolution of the subjective and unconscious aspects of mind, we think #psychoanalysis, #PsychoanalyticalPsychology, and the philosophers who examine these aspects of #mind and ideologies will be fruitful, especially through the lens of evolutionary psychology.
