Philip Kane is joining Unravel & Unwind at INTRA for a 5 week creative writing course.
By engaging in a “dialogue” with works of visual art, writers can access exciting and shifting responses in their own work. Poems, stories, essays, etc, may be generated that “talk back” to the visual stimulus. This is the region of creativity that William Burroughs described as the “third mind”; a state in which “something new, or ‘other’, emerges from the combination that would not have come about with a solo act” (Anne Waldman).
The workshop will be exploring this area of “third mind” through discussion and through practical writing exercises. Each session will be 2 hours in length, but there will also be weekly assignments, each of which will consist of some writing and also some research in preparation for the following session.
9th April, 16th April, 23rd April, 7th May, 14th May
£20 non-refundable deposit per person, £8 per session per person
Not suitable for persons under 18
