Séance: Technology of Disalienation

A video documentation of Séance: Technology of the Spirit Lecture, lecture by Elena Vogman which took its place in August 26, 2025. By tracing the interplay between its clinical theory and experimental media practices, the lecture proposes an expanded understanding of séance as a transformative practice at the intersection of psychoanalysis and cinema—ranging from patient-run ciné-clubs to the influence on avant-garde filmmakers such as Jean Rouch and Mario Ruspoli.
