Exploring the Collective Unconscious in the Age of Digital Media

For decades we have witnessed the emergence of a media age of illusion that is based on the principles of physics—the multidimensionality immateriality and non-locality of the unified field of energy and information—as a virtual reality. As a result a new paradigm shift has reframed the cognitive unconscious of individuals and collectives and generated a worldview in which mediated illusion prevails. Exploring the Collective Unconscious in a Digital Age investigates the cognitive significance of an altered mediated reality that appears to have all the dimensions of a dreamscape. This book presents the idea that if the digital media-sphere proves to be structurally and functionally analogous to a dreamscape the Collective Unconscious researched by Carl Jung and the Cognitive Unconscious researched by George Lakoff are susceptible to research according to the parameters of hard science. This pivotal research-based publication is ideally designed for use by psychologists theorists researchers and graduate-level students studying human cognition and the influence of the digital media revolution.
