Our language today is filled with words like "computer," "world-wide web," "Internet," and "e-mail." And as our language changes, our psyche or soul is influenced as well. How do we cope with this rapid externalization of part of our soul? What would Dr. Jung say to chat-room dream work and Internet therapy? In this lecture we will look at many psychological aspects of speed, time, and space as they partially replace reflective and intuitive moments. What meaning is in the fact that we coined the names of "web" and "net," both filled with symbolism of being caught and potentially killed? Is the WWW a helpful adept in our journey or a devouring demon? Are our relationships with self and others helped or hindered? Many questions arise. Have we begun in our post-modern time to re-form the concept of "objective psyche" with the help of the computer? Jung's typology and concept of the oppositional will assist us in our discussion.
