Matrix Joseph Monomyth Campbell
Now that my posterous blog is growing and I have the flu, I don't want to look back to see if I already mentioned wine and cheese with 12 folks, including Joseph Campbell at the start of a 3-day conference at my uni. I was invited as a senior Lit Major. Ha! A perk.
So, 28 years ago the revelation of his Monomyth structure of Story theory invigorated my mind, and then it was revealed that George Lucas had used it to structure the original Star Wars trilogy, but I never knew that it was also the basis of The Matrix.
Enjoy this clip.
He was a lovely, brilliant, inventive man - and dug on Jung... again. I'm really on a roll here, it would seem . I feel lucky.
