Braiding Uncertainty and Possibility: A Poetic Exploration

About this course:

A blank page offers a universe of uncertainty and possibility. What is a constructive way to approach such vast emptiness, and to drive toward a generative space where absence and presence intertwine? In this workshop, we’ll consider and utilize sources suffusing our sensory world with material that can inspire authentic creative self-expression. Specifically, we’ll engage music, source materials, and the relationship between text and subtext as tools to fuel our poetry. By the end of this workshop, we’ll encounter and cultivate these strategies and tools to diversify our practices as readers, writers, and thinkers. All levels of experience are welcome.
