This speculative text from Break/Flow 2 discusses notions of the unconscious as a dialectical dynamic to be embraced rather than as a forbidden zone to be feared. This latter, propagated in part by Freud, leads to a self-censorship that curtails the auto-theorisation that ensues from creative and political engagement. Music eventually comes to figure as that which frees-us-up.
