How can we defend a border between humans and the rest of the animals if the base of our identity is the minimal self?
According to the phenomological definition of the minimal self, it could be argued that the so-called mineness or self-giveness - the fact that any experience implies a perspective from where it is lived - is something that we can detect in non-human animals as well.

Dare to Dream and Live those Dreams. Naima Minhas!
Do you know that people born on July 6 leap years or July 7 common years are not only "windsurfers," who are always on the crest of a fashionable and stylish wave, but also that within the circle of loved ones they are "walking disasters?" Also, they are primitive “party people” with vulgar attempts at originality and erudition in a shiny wrapper...
Or, do you know that, for example, once those people, who were born on July 10th of leap years or July 11th of common years choose a deity (personified or not)—they not only regularly make various sacrifices (all the way to the very fact of their existence), but also are ready to "put on the altar" of their beliefs and hobbies anyone, even the closest person?
Hence the question: are you sure that you know people, whom you think you know as your own self? Yes, of course, you know them, if we take word-play into account. You really do know them, like you know yourself—that is: just as bad! You know your own and other people's masks and roles, but that is all. You do not believe this? Then, open this book and see for yourself!
This book is for those people, who are fed up with "horoscopism," who are tired of listening to nonsense about themselves and other people from psychologists or their "all-knowing" relatives, friends and acquaintances. It will help you save not just some time in your life, but your whole life because otherwise you will spend your entire life on something that is a priori impossible. And, it is impossible not because you are idiots, but because Homo sapiens cannot fully know themselves and other people without an external (and, most importantly, objective) source. Perhaps that is the reason why humanity was left "factory instructions" to each one of us—the Catalog of Human Population. Yes, that is right! There exists the Catalog of Human Population, which you can open and find out everything about any person you are interested in (including yourself)! Information about people presented in this book (and in other eleven books in the series titled Anti-Horoscope: Human "Software") is from there, and not from your favorite horoscope.

Cao, Santiago. "Body and performance in the era of virtual communication. The...Santiago Cao
“To see” is an act much more complex than one purely physiological. There come into play, among other things, knowledge acquired and inherited, which will serve as tools to decode that which is seen in order to understand and assimilate it. And when I make this distinction between acquired and inherited, I consider the former a result of experience of the subject that generates experience and therefore a personal way of "Seeing the world", unlike the inherited knowledge ( "Seeing the world") which is imposed by the culture that raised one (or should I say that co-raised?). But "to see the world" (Ver el mundo) is not the same as "to see the world." (Ver al mundo) To make this distinction, we must develop in this text the premise of "Seeing is Creating and Creating is Believing," which will then be useful to think that if what we see is not what it is but what we believe it is, what happens then to devices of visual representation of "reality" and to those with the power to disseminate those devices? But new technologies such as the Internet and cellular telephony have led to a break in this concept, crossing through the notions of context and paratext, expanding the creative act of "seeing" and thus generating new realities from a single observed event. And the body in all this will not be left out. We will consider that it happens in Performance as an artistic discipline, where the body, which was traditionally support for the work, is now faced with these new ways of seeing and creating it.
The Kintsugi Theory of Tech Addiction RecoveryMichael Sharber
Tech addictions come in many forms: social media, video games, Internet, pornography, chat rooms... after talking with addicts for over a year on Reddit, and through personal experience in addiction recovery, I came up with this theory. We all try to "fill a hole," but with unhealthy addictions. This imperfect theory can be a starting point for those who want to cut down, eliminate, or substitute their tech addiction.
1. THE BODY AS THE SHADOW
“Man’s body is a problem to him that has not been explained. Not only his body is strange, but
also its inner landscape, the memories and dreams. Man’s very insides—his self—are foreign to
him.”
Denial of Death, Ernest Becker,
“Most of the time, violent sensations seemed to rampage through muscle and vein to impel him to
crude actions. His body was taut and tense as if to feel that in this way he could control these
violent sensations. Feelings of weakness and helplessness make autistic children feel that they
must be in control…
Work with these children has made me realize that sensations are the beginnings of psychic
life. To paraphrase Freud, the “body ego” is “first and foremost” a “sensation ego”.
We have all used “sensation objects” and “sensation shapes”. It is when these become
compulsive and addictive, and are used inappropriately to the exclusion of more socialized ways
of dealing with sensation-driven impulses, that they can be called “autistic sensation objects” and
“autistic sensation shapes”. As a result, such children’s sensation life has gone awry. It has
become perverse.
From time to time, Denis feels that he spills, spits out, throws, or stares the violent sensations
out of him to a comer of the room, where they form a shadow on the wall, of which he is then
frightened (the beginnings of projection). At this stage the Jungian image of “the shadow” seems
a potent and pertinent one. It is formed from the stormy sensations of his violent impulsions…
An important difference between the violence of autistic children and that of mass murderers
is that …autistic children do not have proper fantasies. It is a progress when they begin to do so.”
Autistic Barriers in Neurotic Patients by Frances Tustin
JUNG AND REICH: THE BODY AS SHADOW
John Conger
Strictly speaking the shadow is the repressed part of the ego, and represents what we prefer or are
unable to acknowledge about ourselves. The body which hides beneath clothes, often blatantly
expresses what we consciously deny. In the image we present to others, we often do not want to
show our anger, our anxiety, our sadness, our constrictedness, our depression or our need. In
1935 Jung lectured in England about his general theories in the Tavistock lectures, (Analytical
Psychology: Its Theory and Practice, p. 23) and in passing indicated how the body might stand
as the shadow. He saw that often the body is the “personification of this shadow of the ego.”
We do not like to look at the shadow-side of ourselves; therefore there are many
people in our civilized society who have lost their shadow altogether, have lost the
third dimension, and with it they have usually lost the body. The body is a most
doubtful friend because it produces things we do not like; there are too many things
about the personification of this shadow of the ego. Sometimes it forms the skeleton
in the cupboard, and everybody naturally wants to get rid of such a thing.
Indeed the body is the shadow insofar as it contains the tragic history of how the spontaneous
surging of life energy was murdered and rejected in a hundred ways until the body becomes a
deadened object, the victory of an over-rationalized life promoted at the expense of the more
primitive and natural vitality. For those who can read the body, it holds the record of our rejected
side revealing what we dare not speak, expressing our current and past fears. The body as the
shadow is predominantly the body as “character,” the body as bound energy which is
unrecognized and untapped, unacknowledged and unavailable.
