blog 2.2 (wanderer)



(The Wanderer)

The archetype i associate with the most is the "Wanderer".

The journey of the Wanderer begins when the pain of being an orphan becomes too great, it's the act of taking the first step outside the normal confines, the search for answers, The search for something different,...The beginning of the "adventure".

The song i chose to reperesent my archetype was "The Passenger" by "Iggy Pop".
The reason i chose this song is because in my opinion it could very well be the wanderers national anthem lol. From what i gather the song portrays life (metaphorically) as a car, The passengers are riding from one destination to another experiencing whatever comes their way. In the song it is never said where the car is going but simply that the passenger is under glass riding around enjoying what he see's. This is appropriate in comparison to the archetype of the wanderer since our journey does not consist of knowing what we're looking for or even where we're going, it's all about what we see, what we experience, and the good times we have until the next moment comes; and knowing that everything that's out there was made for us to enjoy and try.
