The work approaches the feeling of searching in a particular sense: searching for something that is already there — and does not need to be found. The point of departure is the well-known Rosenhan experiment, in which eight sane individuals, ‘pseudo-patients’, feigned symptoms to be admitted to psychiatric institutions.
