"Life... The opposite of life is not death, but non-existence.  To die means having lived, but to not exist means being... NOTHING!  To live means to influence the cosmos!  One's actions.  One's presence, changes every being he meets!  The cosmos is everything!  To affect any part of the cosmos is to affect the totality!  Life is the most precious gift the cosmos can bestow." --Steve Englehart; Marvel Premier Featuring: Dr. Strange #12

Very interesting Kenneth; people as vessels for different personalities, each of them an idea, a channel for archetypal ideas. 
People are not sovereign apex rulers, but mid-level managers who are better or worse aligned with supra ordinate concepts, which are at times hard to articulate. 
Also very interesting to see how a PR specialist knows and employs this. He's all about telling stories for people to inhabit...

I'm penning something about how people don't inhabit physical space per-se, but stories. Stories are psychological dwelling-places. I believe a good enough story can save the world.

Thanks for sharing! :)

Daniel,

As a comic book script writer, I totally agree.  The right stories have inspired many movements and resistances against tyranny. 

One reason, why the American Superhero has always intrigued me is the very dividualistic and Syntheist traits the concept has.  Clark Kent is also Superman, but it is Superman, that has more drive, and is what the creative power behind the dividual. 

Alice Cooper in many ways was dawning a secret identity (well not all that secret) like that of a superhero, or probably a supervillain.  None of us know him as Vince, but most parts of the world know him as Alice Cooper.

Kenneth
