Time 7.45pm
Place: The Custom House, Watergate Street (first floor)
1. Notices: apologies Michele, Jim, Hilary and Andrew.
2. Warm-up session.
Describe an object of desire - something you could buy in a shop. What it looks like, why you want it, what you will do with it once you have it, how it will change your life once you have it.
3. Readings.
4. Homework: Imagine being a looter. In first person describe breaking into a shop. Describe what exactly you do (using all senses), why you're doing it, how you feel, whether or not you're alone, coming across the object (described above in 2) and what happens next.
Imagine you are the shopkeeper coming into the shop the next day and finding the object gone. Describe what you see, what you feel, who is with you. What happens next?
Now describe coming across that object years in the future. You have no idea what it is. Describe it from this point of view. How do you work out what it does? Is it redundant?
5. AOB. Next meeting, if you wish please bring your reading with you for a practice.
Date of next meeting: 15th September.
Update: Next Social is on WEDNESDAY 31st August at the Brewery Tap at 8pm.
