I think your ability to infuse stories and myths into commentary is very refreshing when it comes to topics like this. I listened to a buddy talk about this for an hour this week, and all he could talk about was the "how" and the "what's next". I imagine that a lot of cultural commentators would focus on similar things. And if they did touch on the "why" or "what this means", it would be on sociological or political terms, not narrative ones. Quite the way to start my Friday, hahaha.
I wonder if many who read this will sense the weight of what you are suggesting in this essay. Brilliant comment on the state of modern science and its reflection of man’s fallen nature.
Do we walk in legends or on the green earth in the daylight?'
A man may do both,' said Aragorn.
'For not we but those who come after will make the legends of our time. The green earth, say you? That is a mighty matter of legend, though you tread it under the light of day!
I listened to the story of the Dire wolves on OGC and was surprised by the support for this from most of the guys. I find it pretty horrifying but can't explain why.
Great read. They also put some mammoth DNA in some mice to give them shaggier hair. We have subdued nature in large part and there aren't a lot of wild places in the world for Dragons and Cryptids to hang out anymore. Not a lot of edges left, but to your point, the edges are now within and expressed through technology. There is still lots of dominion to take place in THOSE edges.
Thank you for the read that was awesomely enthralling!
The Wheel of Time turns, and Ages come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth. In one Age, called the modern Age by some, an Age yet to come, and an Age long past, a howl rises from a wilderness that is not quite wild. The howl is not the beginning. There are neither beginnings nor endings to the Wheel of Time. But it is a beginning.
This is utterly brilliant.
