Abstract

This paper aims to reflect on the changes to which the usual psychoanalytic device has been subjected for the effects of the COVID 19 pandemic. Restrictions on physical contact, confinement exhorted or required in different countries according to the health measures established by governments, have determined a transformation in the modality of the meeting between patients and analysts. Cell phone and computer screens have become the mediators that enabled for a long time, still do so in some cases, maintain analytical processes and even start new ones. Some fragments of material are presented in order to promote the exchange about the effects produced by the transformation of the working frame. The different bullets analyzed allow us to visualize that there are elements that may be modified in other respects acquire the character of invariants. Analytical encounter can occur on condition that listening is maintained in floating attention, abstinence and promoting free association.
