ABSTRACT

This chapter explains the imaginative conjecture of prenatal aspects of the mind to include in it thoughts without a thinker and wild intuitions, or untamed thoughts. W. R. Bion’s revolutionary idea that thoughts are prior to thinking, and that they stimulate the development of an apparatus or functions to think them, is the starting point of many evolutions, of which the postulation of prenatal aspects of the mind is one of the most fertile. Science and fiction, linked with psychoanalysis, contain a reflection about tools whose combination provides a binocular vision for observation of the domain of psychic reality. The chapter explores the development of tools for psychoanalytical treatment which could make it possible to anchor such turbulences without removing their vital character. The space of psychic reality can be conceived as a space occupied by “no things”. The geometric transformation may be regarded as a representation, “detoxicated”, of the same realization as that represented by the intuitive psycho-analytical theory.
