03.09. 17.09 and 24.09. Workshop series : THE WORLD IS A PROMPT

The World is A Prompt is a three-part, hands-on workshop about the art of lyric writing. It was designed around three core pillars:


  1.        Inspiration is everywhere and can be accessed at will.
  2.        The zone, also known as the flow state, can be induced.
  3.        Mindfulness leads to connected living, which translates to embodied art.


All three sessions will take place outdoors, literally using the city as a prompt: the people, the architecture, scents, and sounds. We will work with a mindfulness framework, practice deep listening and observation. The lyric writing exercises will include visual writing, perspective shifting, synesthesia, dream logic, etc. All of the exercises will be done in a stream of consciousness modality. Participants will be encouraged to use the repertoire of exercises to create a sustainable daily creative practice routine.

Day 1: Introduction to stream-of-consciousness writing, directed stream-of-consciousness writing, and using the world around you as a prompt. Different prompted writing exercises: visual writing, emotional research, perspective shifting, dream logic, etc.

Day 2: Introduction to mindfulness as deep listening and deep observation. Writing exercises using the street as a source of prompts (visual and sonic).

Day 3: Deploying the tools collected over the past few weeks to city-prompted writing exercises and collaborative writing. Designing prompts, creating a daily routine.

ABOUT

Łukasz Polowczyk, aka AINT ABOUT ME, is a Berlin-based sound artist, poet, and educator. His work explores the signal distortion that occurs when a poetic frame or intentionality is isolated and then transposed into different expressions and media. In his world, a poem can be a sound-art piece, a spoken word composition backed by an experimental jazz ensemble, a site-specific audio-visual installation, a book, or a series of grainy, abstract photos. Steven Barker (Wire Magazine) called him “an artist who specializes in the most candid forms of gritty self-exploration.” Electronic Sound introduced his work (Noise in the Key of Life) as “provocative and meditative, blurring the line between art and life.” Lukasz is the creator of LET THAT INK FLOW, a course that combines mindfulness practice with stream of consciousness and different creative writing techniques.
