Viral Dream
Tonda, Joseph
Viral Dream - 2022.
22
This article attempts to show how non-subjects like coronaviruses, jellyfish, Big Brother, death, money and the State instituted as subjects by social imaginaries dream, and how these dreams, extorted from humans and capitalized by these “beings” without consciousness or will, are the paradigm of lives dehumanized by cynical oppressions and mindless actions of their living images. The Covid-19 nightmare, from which humanity will wake up, will be a component of the History of the invisible body of dreams, which is the invisible body of societies. The perspective of viral onirism goes beyond Freudian conceptions and the dispositionalist sociology of dreams, since its problematic is that of non-subjects who live and dream outside of themselves.
