In this episode of the Hesitation Media Podcast, host Veronica engages in a compelling conversation with Dr. Robert Romanyshyn, a renowned scholar whose work on wounded research and the embodied experience of technology marks a significant milestone in the development of empathic journalism. The discussion weaves together various threads of intellectual exploration, including the Greek myth of Orpheus, poetic epistemology, Rainer Maria Rilke's writings, Jungian depth psychology, and the critical notion of the 'wounded researcher.'
Dr.
Romanyshyn elaborates on how genuine objectivity in research can emerge only when individuals acknowledge their personal biases and unconscious drives rather than denying them. This introspective approach leads to a deeper understanding of the self and the subject being studied. Throughout the episode, the myth of Orpheus serves as a central metaphor for exploring themes of love, surrender, and the awakening of the soul. Dr.
Romanyshyn suggests that the journey to the underworld in the myth represents a profound act of surrender, highlighting the transformative power of love and the feminine principle in awakening one's consciousness. Furthermore, the podcast delves into the concept of hesitation as an essential phase in the research process. Dr. Romanyshyn identifies five moments of hesitation that allow researchers to slow down and listen more deeply to their inner selves, emphasizing that slowness, stillness, and surrender are vital for empathic engagement with the world.
The conversation also touches upon the importance of transference in journalism and research, where objectivity is balanced with deep subjectivity. Dr. Romanyshyn's insights extend beyond the clinical setting, offering profound implications for how researchers and journalists can approach their work empathetically and ethically. Listeners are encouraged to engage with Dr. Romanyshyn's work further, as his contributions provide a rich tapestry of ideas that challenge traditional paradigms and invite deeper reflection on the human condition.
