Henrik Williams, Professor of Runology at Uppsala University in Sweden, explains the meaning of a runestone along an ancient Viking Age road. Check out our podcast episode with him here:

#SOULTRIAL That's it. That's the post.

SOULTRIAL's mark combines the elder futhark runes ᛏ (tiwaz), ᚷ (gebo) and ᛇ (eihaz) without relation to pop cultural meanings or their phonemes. Bluetooth uses H & B; ᚼ (hagall) and ᛒ (bjarkan) (younger futhark) deriving from the Danish king Harald Bluetooth. Learn more: youtu.be/WM0PSoxFqgo?...

We have come to deliver a message: The SOULTRIAL #audiodrama has officially entered production stage. #soultrial

SOULTRIAL strives to inspire others to create without GenAI. We value human creativity and the process of creation. Learning and practising is part of it. We have all that we need to create already within us... if there is a will. Good things take time and that is okay. #forhumancreativity #noGenAI
