Glaze of Cathexis
Stan Brakhage, USA, 1990, 3 min, Silent
This hand-painted work is easily the most minutely detailed ever given to me to do, for it traces (as best I’m able) the hypnagogic after-effect of psychological cathexis as designed by Freud in his first (and unfinished) book on the subject – “Toward a Scientific Psychology.” (SB)
