Assignment 2: Tioman Excursion & Group Archetypes

Based on our individual archetypes (archetype.me and jungian archetypes), we figured out an archetype that most of us shared, which is The Jester, and thus, decided to call ourselves the Jester Freaks!


This is our group mindmap on wordly issues (public transportation in KL).


A picture from the Tioman excursion; the Jester Freaks being freaks.

The front of our shirts from the excursion look like this, the circular symbols at the top represent pictograms of events that happened, and the ones on the bottom represent pictograms of our archetypes. Each of our shirts are similar in design except for our signatures in the middle, and our archetype pictograms.

The back of our shirts, showcasing our logo.


On top of that, here are some rough sketches and mindmaps I did in my sketchbook while we tried to figure out the mystery in the Tioman excursion (which our group won for the second time in a row, by the way!):

Assignment 1: Exploring Achetype Me

I recently signed up to archetype.me, and this is my result after taking the archetype quiz!




And here are my Jungian archetypes I think I can relate the most to:
(taken from http://www.soulcraft.co/essays/the_12_common_archetypes.html)

8. The Creator
Motto: If you can imagine it, it can be done
Core desire: to create things of enduring value
Goal: to realize a vision
Greatest fear: mediocre vision or execution
Strategy: develop artistic control and skill
Task: to create culture, express own vision
Weakness: perfectionism, bad solutions
Talent: creativity and imagination
The Creator is also known as: The artist, inventor, innovator, musician, writer or dreamer.

10. The Sage
Motto: The truth will set you free
Core desire: to find the truth.
Goal: to use intelligence and analysis to understand the world.
Biggest fear: being duped, misled—or ignorance.
Strategy: seeking out information and knowledge; self-reflection and understanding thought processes.
Weakness: can study details forever and never act.
Talent: wisdom, intelligence.
The Sage is also known as: The expert, scholar, detective, advisor, thinker, philosopher, academic, researcher, thinker, planner, professional, mentor, teacher, contemplative.

11. The Magician
Motto: I make things happen.
Core desire: understanding the fundamental laws of the universe
Goal: to make dreams come true
Greatest fear: unintended negative consequences
Strategy: develop a vision and live by it
Weakness: becoming manipulative
Talent: finding win-win solutions
The Magician is also known as:The visionary, catalyst, inventor, charismatic leader, shaman, healer, medicine man.




Interesting how the two different archetype systems are consistent with me:
Creative - The Creator
Intellectual - The Sage
Visionary - The Magician

But I suppose that's because the archetypes on archetype.me are based on the ones made by Carl Jung.
