Dear Filippo
You are obviously very happy with your visuals and yes, I can understand the kind of priority that you might, as a professional, wish to give to such events in consciousness. They are just there for you to find.
However, there is nothing in the visuals to say hold or let go. It is you holding or letting go, so, it is a language. The visual either becomes part of a symbolic exchange or else it is lost to consciousness. Those of us who see/hear/feel/smell/taste massive numbers of such exchanges have to learn how to sort the useful from the useless or else we wouldn't get out of bed.
You might want to talk about self-persistent images - in as much as they defeat the symbolic exchange they are destructive of consciousness - ask those maddened by such intrusions and they will tell you of their struggles to make language from this intrusions. (divide by zero?)
Speculating that there was/is something prior to language is ok, as a game, but it doesn't add any efficiency to the processes of consciousness. A better speculation would be "why is there language?". And "why does language take hold of us and why do we take hold of language?".
cheers
