Don't you wonder sometimes…about sound and vision? — a fiction non-fiction freewrite event with Kate Copeland — ($25)
The gift of Sound & Vision…right what David Bowie showed us! And so many others…The Go-Go’s got the beat, Aretha sang of Respect for a Natural Woman. Adding to this: in motion pictures we see working girls and hidden figures, plus Thelma, Louise and Frida too. In this 90 minute workshop, we will look at the harmony between song, film, words and the brain hemispheres! The non-fiction part is composed of lyrical memory, linguistic film theory, and prosody in poetry and linguistics. Lavinia Greenlaw’s The Importance of Music to Girls will direct our female gaze, as will poems by Lena Khalaf Tuffaha, Tracy K. Smith (Bowie!), Kiki Petrosino and Shira Erlichman. After the workshop, you will receive a document with all sorts of information to muse on. Music, motion, the mind a gogo!
Kate Copeland’s love for languages led her to linguistics & teaching; her love for art & water to poetry. She is curator-editor for The Ekphrastic Review and runs linguistic-poetry workshops for IWWG.
