An Open-Source Storytelling Workshop at 826 Valencia
About the Workshop
Taught by Scott Lambridis and Eric Myers
Limited to 12 students, ages 11–14
Thursdays, October 15-November 5 2009, 6:00–8:00 PM
What do you think about what’s important in the world? Writing is not only a dialogue between yourself and the reader; it is a dialogue between yourself and the world. Taking regular headlines as our starting point, we will draw inspiration from the comic, tragic, complex world we inhabit. Working collaboratively, we will use everything from Web 2.0 software to scrapbooks to capture the building blocks of stories that are both entertaining and socially relevant. We will then use this mixed media collage to create stories that communicate our thoughts and concerns about life in the twenty-first century. The creative process will be archived in a digital journal for future use. Completed stories will be submitted for inclusion in 826’s Quarterly, published online in OLOGY magazine.
