Thoughts written down during a talk by A S Byatt, on myths

at 5x15 at the Tabernacle, yesterday



- Myths as central ordering aspects of a culture's imagination vs fragmentation of cultures into subcultures

- It is impossible to tell how loud eating crisps actually is for other people


It is impossible. The noise of eating them is so loud in your own ears that there's no way to tell how loud it sounds outside your own head.
