Work with the mysterious

Start with the list you made in "Ingredients" -- this will be the source material, the jumping-off-point for what you make next. Now, you will transform your list into a new creation / translate your list into a new medium.

You're going to create in a mode that is unfamiliar--or at least, not your most fluent medium of expression. If you're a performer, maybe you'll draw something. Writer--make a dance. Choreographer--write a poem. You get the idea.

The title of your creation will be the title of your list. It will be 1-3 minutes in duration.

Choose one:

• Dialogue

• Drawing

• Dance/movement piece

• Improvised monologue (filmed as you invent it)

• Poem

• Song

• Film/video or photo series

• Ceremony

• Found text collage / found poetry

• Interview

Let your creation include:

• Softness and sharpness

• Repetition

• Memory or prediction

• At least one of the following: darkness, music/sound, silence, surprise

• What is the need, hunger that is calling from your list? Let that drive your creation.

Put your phone on Do Not Disturb. Give yourself one hour. Make a thing.

Choose a way to document it. Share that documentation here (I hope!).
