DOMICIANO, João Felipe Guimarães de Macedo Sales  and  RODRIGUES, Rafael. Between the enjoyment and the remembering: On the (im)possibility to weave a memory in the contemporaneity. TransForm. Psicol. (Online) [online]. 2010, vol.3, n.1, pp. 00-00. ISSN 2176-106X.

This article aims to characterize the conditions of (im)possibility and specificities of a memory constituted in the core of a social order as the contemporary. Making use of a diagnosis that considers the proper libidinal economy of a consumption society as structured in favor of forms of enjoyment patently perverse, with implications for the very way of experiencing time, we delineate, at first, the relationship between the specificities of the configuration of contemporary social bond and the impossibility of setting up a memory. Understanding this concept in a articulation of the Benjamin's "experience" and the processes of remembering as outlined by psychoanalysis, we weave, at least, some comments on the alleged memory present in a television’s "show". It ends up by showing how this objectified memory performs the deletion of the subject who participates in it by its setting as an interested image that only allows a distension of the fleeting experience of the position of viewer.

Keywords : memory; social ties; contemporary (father’s position); time perception and psychoanalysis and culture.
