Things we get fixated as a society. Cultural icons, in other words.

Friday, March 24, 2006

Welcome to the blog

This blog is about cultural icons and images, that is, graphic images that determine how we perceive the world around us. Althougn most of these icons vary from culture to culture, some of them appear to be universal. These are the ones Jung would call "archetypes" or Plato "ideas."

Here we would like to gather these images together. But not just images. We also want to collect textual information that is iconic in nature.
