This lightning talk presents an ongoing experiment in transforming complex philological research into an interactive digital narrative, using Galen's theory of phonation as a case study. It examines the interpretive decisions entailed in rendering a dispersed, process-driven ancient physiological account as a sequential, multimodal interface, arguing that such design choices constitute scholarly arguments in their own right. The talk reflects critically on what this experiment has so far revealed — both the possibilities and the limits of digital narrative as a framework for communicating ancient scientific reasoning.
