We are beset by a tyranny of choice, and frequently told we can be anything we want to be. Myths see it differently. The old stories suggest we are here to do something quite specific.
The fables suggest we trade some growth for depth. In Russian fairy tales the soul is seen as something attracted only by gifts crafted slowly and lovingly by hand. A process that creates callouses and maybe even a little wisdom. In our time together, Dr Shaw will unfurl stories and ideas he calls 'ancient technologies' that open up quite what a handmade life could look like. Such attention requires care as well as focus. In this era of AI and its attendant opportunities, how are humanity's beautiful imperfections hallmarks of a sane culture? What would a covenant with limits actually look like? In this unique immersive event with a master of myth, expect rich storytelling and vivid ideas in our time together.
A seasonal dinner and shared conversation will anchor this outdoor gathering in the gardens of Savannah's Ships of the Sea Museum, situated next to the historic Scarbrough House—a setting that invites the kind of sustained attention, exchange, and fellowship that defines the Ralston experience.
