The two commentaries on “Synchronicity, Acausal Connection and the Fractal Dynamics of Clinical Practice” (this issue) raise a number of important philosophical and clinical issues when working with the “uncanny” and nonlocal phenomena. While Harris focuses on the importance of bridging prevalent binaries in clinical work, Cartwright contrasts veridical information sharing with the transformational aspects of local and nonlocal intersubjective connection, raising important questions about the nature of interobjectivity. Both reviewers reference parallels to Bion’s thoughts on Caesura. In this necessarily brief response, we attempt to clarify the utility of fostering fractal consciousness and intuitive knowing in clinical work, and wider implications for the collaboration between meta-reductive science and psychoanalysis.
