SCIENTIFIC MEETING

We have a very exciting Scientific Meeting coming up on March 17, 2019. Adam Blum, PsyD, will take us through a deep exploration of identification as the channel through which the erotics of sameness enrich and animate the sexuality of difference. Along the way he will shed new light on Freud’s notion of the “oceanic feeling,” while also weaving together artifacts of contemporary culture, such as William Finnegan’s surfing memoir, Barbarian Days, and musical works by John Luther Adams and Frank Ocean. Dr. Blum will be joined in a dialogue by Francisco Gonzalez, MD. If you like thinking about music, sexuality, and oceanic oneness, you should definitely spend your St. Patrick’s Day at this event. Here are the details:
