Mikael Brygger: Daily Elastic Writing Workshop (DEWW) part 1: Writing as playing with roles

The first part of a series of loosely connected workshops utilizes a set of collaborative, experimental and generative writing practices. Within this tripartite workshop, we gather to write collaboratively according to generative rules. At the same time, there is a master rule in effect, one rule to rule them all, which is to redefine the other rules to best serve each of the participants and the task at hand. The workshop's collaborative focus is on creating a living and breathing open world of text, a sandbox for the participants to explore, communicate and interact with by reading and writing with/in a two-dimensional digital space.

On Wednesday we explore how assuming roles could contribute to the generative and collective processes when writing in a shared digital medium in collaboration with other participants. Additional context relates to using game-like structures to organize acts of artistic expression.

The workshop continues on Thursday 26 August and on Friday 27 August at 10:30-11:30. The workshop is available only for the pre-registered participants. The registration closed on 20 August 2021.
 

15:00-16:00

Annette Arlander: Writing to your chosen tree – a workshop   

In this workshop we will explore writing a letter to a tree of our choice next to that very tree, and share parts of those letters with each other via zoom. Thus, the participants are asked to choose in advance a tree that is important to them, or to go to a nearby park and approach a tree that seems inviting. Please, be prepared to bring your computer or phone or other device with zoom connection next to the tree at the time of the workshop. And prepare pen and paper in order to be able to write the letter to the tree by hand.  Looking forward to meeting you and the trees…
