Tim Falkiner: The Zone of the Pokies Addict

Jung Society Melbourne Podcast - Ein Podcast von The C G Jung Society of Melbourne

This lecture discusses electronic gambling machines known as “pokies” in Australia, “slot machines” in the United States of America and “fruit machines” in the United Kingdom. It explores their use of symbols, how players may be entranced by the promise of spiritual connection and let down by the lack of revelation. Regulations surrounding electronic gambling machines vary greatly around the world and continue to be the subject of fierce political and social debate in Australia.
