The place of the unconscious or about the unconscious as a place

The basic idea in this paper involves a certain elaboration on the place of the unconscious, which corresponds, to a certain extent, to the Bionian theory of binocular vision. In this theory, both the conscious and unconscious emerge in the psychic apparatus and they are much more constituted by their functions than by radically different structures. What is emphasized is much more the need of functions for both than the singularity and autonomy of the locations attributed to conscious and unconscious.
