"I made you in my image"

possession, delusion, vision, hypnotism, trance, hallucination, and narcosis

Indeed, Artaud likens the cinema to possession, delusion, vision, hypnotism, trance, hallucination, and narcosis because, in all of these experiences, we are inhabited by an "other" logic, our brain and bodies given over to a force that lies outside of us.  With respect to the moving image, Artaud's question is not, What is the nature of thinking? but, What is this thing that thinks inside of me?

G-d inscribes a "law" in us that makes us equal to the incredible variety of nature.
