Shame and Creativity: From Affect Towards Individuation is about shame and the ways in which we can use creative methods to transform shame into a lifelong process of self-development. Using a Jungian understanding of the personal and collective unconscious, shame is described as a key affect in relation to self-worth and quality of life. The book is divided into three parts. Part One is about shame, based on affect theory, Jungian psychology and psychological creativity. Part Two discusses shame in relation to seven primary affects, introducing the ‘Blue Diamante model’ to describe how shame is often hidden behind other affects and suggesting that all affects must be involved in process...
Laying out a new integrative approach to the treatment of depression, this book looks at the biological, psychological, social and spiritual dimensions of clinical art therapy. Skov presents the theoretical foundation for a Jungian approach to art therapy and depression together with its clinical methodology and framework, outlining a procedure for working with people with mild to moderate depression. Integrative art therapy in clinical practice is introduced alongside case studies from the author's research and practice to show how transformative processes operate in the field between the conscious and the unconscious part of the psyche. Finally the author lays out her research methodology and discusses the possible implications of the integrative art therapy approach. This revolutionary approach, which places equal importance on both art therapy and psychology in the treatment of depression, will be a valuable resource for all art therapists and students working with clients and patients who suffer from depression. Psychologists, psychotherapists, counsellors and other mental health professionals will also find it of interest.

At skabe kunst kan være terapeutisk, ikke kun for mennesker med almindelige livsproblemer; også ved alvorlige psykiatriske lidelser som skizofreni kan kunst være en potent medicin. I en ny bog beskriver kunstterapeut og psykiater Hanne Stubbe Teglbjærg, hvordan kunsten kan mindske psykiske lidelser ved at styrke menneskers erfaring af, hvem de er, og give nye perspektiver på tilværelsen. I bogen fremlægges en rigdom af erfaringer fra kunstterapeutiske forløb, som sideløbende med afsæt i æstetik og fænomenologi, og i forlængelse heraf argumenteres for en skabende kunstterapi, som adskiller sig både teoretisk og klinisk fra den mere udbredte analytiske form for kunstterapi. Den s...
How does coding change the way we think about architecture? This question opens up an important research perspective. In this book, Miro Roman and his AI Alice_ch3n81 develop a playful scenario in which they propose coding as the new literacy of information. They convey knowledge in the form of a project model that links the fields of architecture and information through two interwoven narrative strands in an “infinite flow” of real books. Focusing on the intersection of information technology and architectural formulation, the authors create an evolving intellectual reflection on digital architecture and computer science.
