The Role of Unconscious Constructs in Logic and Their Applications to Informatics

Abstract

Since phallic logic is the ancestral, irreducible and primordial logical nucleus of human psyche, phylogenetically implemented in its deepest unconscious meanders (we hypothesize that structural unconscious, according to Lévi-Strauss and Matte Blanco, springs out during homination process in concomitance with human brain formation and evolution) and afterwards ontogenetically re-enacted individually as a binary logic in the human consciousness, we may consider structural unconscious features as useful from a computational standpoint, so that we have compared this psychoanalytic construct with certain notions of computer sciences, like those of concurrent/parallel processes, synchronous/asynchronous circuits, temporal/modal logics, with the main purpose to formalize the main features of structural unconscious, like timelessness and the presence of logical contradictions. This has been mainly pursued from the standpoint of logic and its various trends.
