“It is the dark, inaccessible part of our personality, what little we know of it we have learned from our study of the Dream work and of the construction of neurotic symptoms, we call it a chaos, a cauldron full of seething excitations… It is filled with energy reaching it from the instincts, but it has no organization, produces no collective will, but only a striving to bring about the satisfaction of the instinctual needs subject to the observance of the pleasure principle.”
(Sigmund Freud, 1933, New Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis)

For many years, ever since I was a high school student I was fascinated with the theories of Freud. Actually more than the theory as a whole, there was one word that had lingered with me from his personality Theory – This word is ID

According to Freud It not only strives to fulfill our most basic urges, many of which are tied directly to survival, it also provides all of the energy necessary to drive personality.

For the sake of this short residency I would like to investigate the various shades of passion as a means of observing and reflecting on Freud’s ID theory.

I find this strong and barley controllable emotion a great trigger point to take a deep look into our beings and the engine that drives us.

I am curios in experiencing what kind of physical properties can passion push out?
What is that dark place that Frued has been talking about?
How dealing with these ideas effects the environment we move in?
