Short piece about the European dream of the Other.
“The most elementary fantasmatic scene is not
that of a fascinating scene to be looked at, but the
notion that ‘there is someone out there looking at
us’; it is not a dream, but the notion that ‘we are
the objects in someone else’s dream’.”
– S. Žižek
