In Person + Zoom: Archetype of the Machine
November 13 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Prepaid Cost: $55.00 – $75.00Event Navigation
Presented by Jody Echegaray, Psy.D.
The Machine in Jung’s collected works is generally presented as that which stands in opposition to the biological world and life but nonetheless exerts psychic and physical effects. Contemporary science, philosophy, critical studies, popular culture, and the infrastructural basis of our economy and our social interactions are mediated by machines, and can be thought of as being saturated by the presence of the Machine. Today, the notion of the Machine is no longer confined to just mechanical or computational devices or the technological, but rather systems of thought, science, and our economic foundations. This presentation will highlight contemporary notions of the Machine in other fields where the Machine is a governing metaphor and cornerstone in contemporary culture and philosophy. In looking at in through a post-Jungian lens, we can view the Machine as archetype that is built upon more ancient archetypes that have occurred throughout humanity’s history.
Learning objectives:
- Identify the three aspects of the proposed archetype of the Machine and how they might incorporate older, more archaic archetypal configurations.
- Give an example of how aspects of the archetype of the machine can manifest in a client’s behavior and/or patterns of thinking, as well as in dream material
