creativehum Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) Falling down a rabbit hole of all things Greg Stafford this past week, I came across this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hKrVRTOYpY&t=2049s Does anyone know if a transcript exists anywhere? (Not that there should be... but I'm curious.) In particular, I was taken by Greg and Jeff's point that mythology basically dies when written down and codified, and that true mythology lives in loose, contradictory tales of the same characters, stories, and situations. (Suggesting that: Your Glorantha May Vary < Your Glorantha Will Vary < Your Glorantha Should Vary.) [Edited to Add: It wasn't like Greg hasn't been begging people to understand this various ways for years] Edited October 18, 2018 by creativehum 2 1 Quote "But Pendragon isn’t intended to be historical, just fun.

Rick Meints Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I know of no written transcripts of this or other recent videos. We at The Chaosium would welcome a volunteer doing them. Alas, such volunteers are few and far between and we do not have the resources to do them in house. 1 Quote Hope that Helps,Rick Meints - Chaosium, Inc.

creativehum Posted October 18, 2018 Author Share Posted October 18, 2018 Yes. A lot of work! Again, I wasn't expecting such a thing to be lying around. There are a few quotes I want to pull for a blog post about the need for making your Glorantha YOUR GLORANTHA. But I'll dig them out with a little bit of work.

The God Learner Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 (edited) Perhaps you can use a professional service. The following one appears to offer a transcript of the video above for about 42 euro. https://gotranscript.com/ There are several others too, search for 'video transcript service'. (I presume you will have to fix up idiosyncratic names on your own.) Edited October 18, 2018 by The God Learner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
