Milestones: January 2015 Visual Connection Mapping the practical application of The Communication Model becomes privatized, however it is still operating in conjunction with Our Place Society in Victoria, on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Privatized means that it is operating in conjunction with / and through Our Place Society who is a silent supporter / partner (Angel Investor) of Visual Connection Mapping. Visual Connection Mapping is autonomous and works from a silo organization structure within the larger organization of Our Place Society. This is done in order to best protect the clients’ privacy and the client’s confidentiality.

Metholodology:
From the history of introspective psychology: The Humanist Strain by John E. Gedo and Ernst S. Wolf. “The psychoanalyst as historian is on familiar ground, as the search for evidence of the past and its interpretation in terms of meaning and significance are the shared metholodological tools of both disciplinces.” P. 11, Book: Freud. The Fusion of Science and Humanism. 1976.
Positive intent:
“I cannot therefore”-Jung writes-“bring forward anything convincing, anything, that is, that will convince the reader in the way it convinces the person for whom it is the most personal experience imaginable. We just have to believe him by analogy with what we have experienced ourselves. Finally, when all else fails we can undoubtedly perceive the final result, namely the change in the personality.” Goldrunner. p. 119.
Artwork as museum piece of the unconscious:
“Every work of art is to Freud simply a museum piece of unconscious, a chance to contemplate the unconscious frozen into one of its possible gestures.” Delusion and Dream and other essays by Sigmund Freud – an introduction by Philip Rieff, The Beacon Press, Boston, 1956 p. 11.
