SUMMARY:Workshop: ECODEVIANCE: a generative writing class
DESCRIPTION:With nicole v. basta. ECODEVIANCE is a term borrowed from the poet CA Conrad. Here\, we will use the idea (“subversive syllabus for a queer ecopoetics”) to practice presence with our words and with the earth outside the typical constraints of our society and our minds. Through extensive multi-step prompts\, you will be asked to burrow forward without turning back (i.e. keep your pen moving in a way that allows your mind to slip out of its linear grip). This is a generative creative writing class where we will use the cycles of nature and the vastness of time (starting back in pre-human times) to explore unconventional ways to approach a page and emerge more potent writers. We will reject time and question what it means to be in touch with “nature” in a world constantly distancing itself/ exploiting nature. We will also borrow inspiration from queer revolutionaries and resistors. This class is meant for all types of creatives\, all people.
