What follows is a transcript I typed up from part of a talk Richard Saul Wurman gave in the fall of 1975 at Ball State University.

The title of his talk was Works In Progress, and one of the projects he shared with the audience was the first draft version of what he described as a “keynote fable” - something he was writing for performance at his AIA ‘76 National Convention, which was to be convened in Philadelphia the following spring.
