Our second episode is entitled "Argos on the beach" and is about one hour long. Argos, in Greek mythology, was the ship that carried Jason and the Argonauts to the conquest of the Golden Fleece. According to the myth, the ship was magical and could sing while sailing.


At the end of the Argonauts' adventure, the ship was abandoned on the beach, but even as the sun, salt and wind corroded its planking, it never stopped singing. According to another legend, Argos was instead consecrated to Poseidon, king of the sea. Then it was transported to the sky and transformed into the constellation of the Ship Argos.


Listening with headphones is recommended.


Enjoy.
