Adventures are often undertaken to create psychological arousal or in order to achieve a greater goal, such as the pursuit of knowledge that can only be obtained by such activities. Motivation Adventurous experiences create psychological arousal, which can be interpreted as negative (e.g. fear) or positive (e.g. flow (psychology), flow). For some people, adventure becomes a major pursuit in and of itself.

Adventure (Television Album)
''Adventure'' is the second studio album by American rock band Television, released in April 1978 by Elektra Records. Musical style On the album's sound, Mark Deming of AllMusic writes, "Where ''Marquee Moon'' was direct and straightforward in its approach, with the subtleties clearly in the performance and not in the production, ''Adventure'' is a decidedly softer and less aggressive disc, and while John Jansen's production isn't intrusive, it does round off the edges of the band's sound in a way Andy Johns' work on the first album did not." Reception Ken Emerson of ''Rolling Stone'' wrote, "By daring to be different, ''Adventure'' lives up to its title, but it also comes as something of a disappointment because it lacks the jagged tension and mysterious drama that imbued last year's ''Marquee Moon'' with such dark but lucid power." Robert Christgau of ''The Village Voice'' was favorable, writing, "I agree that it's not as urgent, or as satisfying, but that's only to say ...

Adventure (Furslide Album)
''Adventure'' is the first album by the New York City alternative rock band Furslide, released in 1998. It was produced by Nellee Hooper. Critical reception ''The Washington Post'' gave the album a mixed review, writing that singer/guitarist Jennifer Turner "has a strong, expressive rock soprano, and Hooper wraps her songs in a dizzying psychedelic-synth-pop swirl. The problem is the songs, which have neither memorable melodies nor coherent lyrics." ''The Austin Chronicle'' called it "an excellent introduction to pop's latest dynamic frontwoman: Jennifer Turner, a thoughtful songwriter who's perhaps the best female guitar hero since Jen Trynin." ''Spin Spin or spinning most often refers to: * Spinning (textiles), the creation of yarn or thread by twisting fibers together, traditionally by hand spinning * Spin, the rotation of an object around a central axis * Spin (propaganda), an intentionally b ...'' wrote that it deserves to be a "pop hit."
