On storytelling and the importance of myths to our culture and humanness. Some stories are not meant to be understood. They are not meant to be trapped. We should not pretend to know what they mean. We should let stories have their way with us and move us, without trying to categorize them. Martin Shaws starts the conversation by telling a short Norwegian tale about a creature that is part snake and part human – hinting at that we don't always need to find a meaning.
