Insularity: ethic of a synesthetic cognition

Abstract

You are island by nature and birth and immediately your geographical boundaries and synaesthetic limits are limited to the periphery of the island and the horizons perceived from the coasts or from the highest point of the island. A “continental” person will integrate into the island yet will never take the option of seeing his geography be limited to the outskirts of the island because the continent is always far in front. The insularity of the former will give primacy to the whole island without seeking continental affection. In some areas, both physiological and psychological, other sources are used representing the knowledge of personal determination. Don't be surprised. Public opinion, a trivial thing, is constantly being supplied with information about the islands through diversified resurgences, including those by the press, audiovisual media, posters and the most innovative and initiating information technologies. In a research on scientific knowledge, these discourses and images are a pole of research approach in an opposition to the spectacle of the world where the nature of a psychological, neurological knowledge is put into perspective. Any island person (born there on the island or family implanted, family involved in the island, etc.) can be ‘happened’ by distant horizons in order to settle whatever the real reason or the one imagined or for material reasons more than psychological ones: I want to talk about pleasures guessed or sought to keep in the middle of the neural space the image of a return always possible.
