Johnson\, PhD\, will draw from Lacan’s Four Discourses to show how attempts at mastery can lead to ignorance\, paralysis and destruction within universities and the societies that surround them. \nAndrew Ridgeway\, PhD\, will engage Plato’s Republic\, Lacan’s theory of jouissance and Mladen Dolar’s concept of viral ontology to argue that a split in human nature leaves citizens vulnerable to conspiracy theories which offer pleasure in place of facts. \nJerome Dent\, PhD\, will apply the work of Franz Fanon\, H.P. Lovecraft\, James Baldwin and G.E.M. Anscombe to analyze how modern media uses Blackness to provoke dread\, contain narrative threats and reinforce racial antagonisms. \nAri Ofengenden\, PhD\, will argue that Artificial Intelligence exerts authoritarian control over its users via gratification and dependence.  He will draw from the work of Erich Fromm\, Herbert Marcuse and Lacan to show how AI lures us into servile relationships.\nPaul Doyen\, LCSW\, will argue that anti-authoritarian theories have obscured the original aims of psychoanalysis.  Using Freudian ego psychology\, he will suggest that the goal of psychoanalysis isn’t just deconstruction but realistic self-knowledge.\n\n  \nSchedule\n\n \n\n\n9:30–11:00 am \n\n\nPanel 1 – Trauma\, Pleasure and the Work of Art \n\n\n \n\n\n9:30–10:30 \n\n\nPresentations (5 presenters • 12 minutes each) \n\n\n\n\n10:30–10:45 \n\n\nPanel discussion \n\n\n\n\n10:45–11:00 \n\n\nAudience Q&A \n\n\n \n\n\n11:00–11:15 am \n\n\nBreak \n\n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n\n11:15 am–12:45 pm \n\n\nPanel 2 – Power\, Knowledge and the Allure of Authoritarianism \n\n\n \n\n\n11:15–12:15 \n\n\nPresentations (5 presenters • 12 minutes each) \n\n\n\n\n12:15–12:30 \n\n\nPanel discussion \n\n\n\n\n12:30–12:45 \n\n\nAudience Q&A \n\n\n \n\n\n12:45–1:00 pm \n\n\nClosing remarks \n\n\n\n\n1:00–2:00 pm \n\n\nOptional lunch at Sukho Thai \n\n\n\n\n\nNone of the listed presenters have disclosures \n  \n  \nCONTINUING EDUCATION CREDITS \n In support of improving patient care\, this activity has been planned and implemented by the American Psychoanalytic Association and the New Orleans-Birmingham Psychoanalytic Center.
