Admitting online for psychoanalysis, at emergent online teaching psychoanalytic schools affiliated with online teaching hospitals for clinical care, and in multiple languages and countries, would create novel clinical situations potentially leading to new forms of theorizing - and possibilities for data. Am curious about a kind of psychoanalytic theoretical focus that would focus on psychotherapeutic communication as "information technology" exchange (very novel indeed, but allowing eventually for developing avatar bots in these regards ... eg MIT Media Lab's focus on affective computing and personal robotics, etc. ) ... Online psychoanalysis / psychotherapy in group video conferencing would allow for "other forms of communication, especially involving emotion" ... but words as signifiers, for me, seem to be able to convey "information technology" that can affect emotions remarkably, and lives, hence my interest in Lacan's focus on languages / parole-speech (am thinking here too of a Lacanian psychoanalyst MD family friend, now deceased) ... Appreciating your great knowledge, experience, and speaking from this, Chris. Have you had much/any experience as analyst with a 3-5 year 4-5 day a week analysis with an analysand ONLINE - and affiliated with a medical school even - https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/World_University_Medical_School (planned in multiple languages, and if fortunate, in conjunction possibly with Leland Stanford's Palo Alto gem of a Univ.) - for example? Am interested re World University and School's planned online medical schools with online teaching hospitals for online clinical care. (Think Project ECHO - specialists to rural populations in group video with a mentoring/school aspect, and potentially with Google's Project Baseline into an online hospital in a realistic virtual earth - think Google Street View with time slider with Second Life / OpenSim avatar bots )? Creative and innovative explorations here. Thank you.

Thanks, Dr. Chris Heath ... curious how these "Hippy Anjali Yoga Notatioins" - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2017/08/hippy-anjali-yoga-notations-ntf-talk.html - with a slight Lacanian psychoanalytic influence would dovetail with your thinking and practice (given your long hair, for ex.), and especially re multiple languages. (World University and School seeks to create online psychoanalytic schools in each of all ~200 countries' official languages - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/05/flax-seed-flowers-glad-to-be-developing.html). Friendly cheers, Scott

Hi Scott MacLeod, and thank you. The Hippy Anjali Yoga videos are very engaging! They center our window into the unconscious in/thru the body. The practice is different than psychoanalysis, but the goal and philosophy are, I think, the same. Great find, thank you for steering me that way, and your hard work on the blogspot.

Hi Dr. Chris Heath MD, - thank you too. The Hippy Anjali Yoga Notations kind of rif with Patanjali's Yoga Sutras (also a system of healing / health), but with a focus on innovative Angela and Victor's Yoga (and related videos) - and their body focus. Am curious about Lacanian psychoanalysis with its focus on language / speech / the signifier re the unconscious ... where the "Unconscious is structured like a Language" ... and even creating online Lacanian psychoanalytic schools in all ~200 countries' official / main languages ... https://wiki.worlduniversityandschool.org/wiki/Psychoanalysis ... at CC-4 MIT OCW-centric World University and School ... and appreciating too what comes after Lacan ie re John Money and so many others re psychoanalysis ... search on John Money here, for example - https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/Jacques%20Lacan%20MD ... What's your thinking about Lacan / languages as a very experienced MD psychoanalyst? Thank you.

I have to admit, I have a hard time taking the Lacanian structure in. It is widely studied, and Lacanian psychoanalysts, IMO, are the clearest theorists of any when they speak. They are very well equipped to, in the moment, put novel clinical situations into theoretic perspective. I think what is difficult for me in the Lacanian school is their use of words as signifiers. In clinical work, I think often, for me, the words matter much less than other forms of communication, especially involving emotion. So I find myself drawn to the Argentinian and Italian focus on the frame, especially Baranger's work on Process and Non-Process. Also the French and British work on the Body, especially Dedier Anzieu and Esther Bick on the psychical skin/Second Skin. Somehow I can get all that, but not Lacanian descriptions; I think it is somehow a blind spot for me...

Chris, interesting body-related psychoanalytic writing by Jennifer van der Grinten here ...
"THE PSYCHOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE OF THE SKIN FROM FREUD TO TODAY" - https://www.academia.edu/19729015/The_Psychological_Significance_of_the_Skin_from_Freud_to_Today ... and I blogged a bit about all of this here ... https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2018/05/bluebonnet-plant-head-in-direction-of.html ... Am appreciating your articulateness and focus on emotions re Lacan's 'parole'/speech & language focus ... words as signifiers of the unconscious such as emotions can be communicated with, n'est-ce pas ? A realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs and for related studies could open up interesting possibilities for understanding language re the body, and re Lacan's focus on desire as well - in addition to your focus on the body, it seems.  Thank you, Dr. Heath!

"Psychocutaneous Medicine". Very interesting, I'll take a closer look. Thank you for the reference.
