Yes, I saw that in your slides. It made me wonder if there could be some correlations with the Matter dimension.
Perhaps "natural selection" could be divided between "positive selection" (corresponding with "Life") and "negative selection" (corresponding with "Matter"), since the latter is a selective removal of alleles that are deleterious, (which could also correspond with the death instinct).

I like that connection, Jason. Here is a graphic that does link the three layers of the Freud model to the ToK and corresponds them to Skinner’s three tiers of selection:

Gregg and Tokers,
As I've been thinking about it, I was wondering if the "life instinct" could be thought of as the "Id" (which I think goes along with what Freud was originally thinking of with the id), and the "death instinct" be the "Sub-Id".
The "Sub-Id" could correspond with the "Matter dimension" on the ToK, (i.e., the "non-life" dimension)
Super-Ego --- Culture
Ego ------------ Mind
Id --------------- Life
Sub-Id --------- Matter
Just having a little fun here.

On Freud's Tripartite model of the mind...
If there's a Super-Ego, why not a Super-Id?

I received several requests for the slides, so I am sharing them here.
Attached is class 2.
After an intro and overview we watched this 10 minute clip of female British psychoanalysts reflecting on the field.

Then we tried to get clear in separating the baby and the bathwater in Freudian thought (see here: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/theory-knowledge/201401/the-baby-and-the-bathwater-in-freudian-thought), and corresponded Freud’s conception of consciousness to the ToK/UTUA Framework (see here https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/theory-knowledge/201605/unified-approach-human-consciousness)
Best,
Gregg
