Fotoğrafa dair Susan Sontag'ın bir tespiti bana hep çarpıcı gelmiştir. "Fotoğraf bizim fethetme duygumuzu karşılar (tatmin eder)." Başkalarını, başka mekânları ele geçirme, fethetme belki de hükmetme tutkumuzun ifadesi... Bir fotoğraf karesinde dondurduğumuz o görüntünün, içimizde itiraf edilmemiş duyguların yansıması olarak, böyle bir boyutunun olması her zaman geçerli bir durum mudur?

Depression symbolizes the "irreducible" that "cannot be controlled," according to Ehrenberg." It arises from "confrontation between the notion of limitless possibility and the notion of the uncontrolled." Accordingly, depression occurs when the subject founders on the uncontrolled and struggles for initiative.
Richard Sennett also traces the crisis of gratification back to a narcissistic disorder and the lack of relationship to the other: "As a character disorder, narcissism is the very opposite of strong self-love. Self-absorption does not produce gratification, it produces injury to the self; erasing the line between self and other means that nothing new, nothing 'other,' ever enters the self; it is devoured and transformed until one thinks one can see oneself in the other and then it becomes meaningless.... The narcissist is not hungry for experiences, he is hungry for Experience, looking always for an expression or reflection of himself in Experience. One drowns in the self...." In experiences, one encounters the other. One changes and becomes other. Experience, on the other hand, extends the ego into the other, into the world. Thus it draws on resemblance, on sameness. Self-love is thus still determined by negativity, as it devalues and repels the other in favor of the self. The self opposes the other. It is asserted by demarcating itself from others. To love oneself is to position oneself expressly against the other. In the case of Narcissus, on the other hand, the border with the other blurs entirely. Those who suffer from a narcissistic disorder sink into themselves. If any point of reference to the other is completely lost, no stable conception of the self can form.
A society dominated by the hysteria for survival is a society of the undead, capable neither of living nor of dying.
