The automatic writing project started out as an activity among friends and locals. I would write a line someone else would write a line and so on... Then people would overhear us and ask if they could participate and write something too (which surprised me) of course I said "yes!" At that point I realized that lots of people have something to say. I started asking strangers to add entries, then I graduated to offering people $1.00 to participate, some people do not accept the dollar and some pay me a $1.00 (paying it forward). It's becoming quite a lovely, surprising and compelling project. People from many walks of life are participating: homeless, a news reporter, academics, students, doctors, drug addicts, lawyers, tourists etc... People have written things in my journal that they'd never say out loud, not to anyone. Some of it's so sad, some intriguing, hilarious and so on... At the end of the day, every one of these people understand that their entries are being uploaded to the internet and are comforted in knowing that they will be heard. I have no idea where this is going, but it's going just fine! FYI: English is not everyone's first language here. I will be illustrating the book/journal after the text is done. I hope that everyone who reads these entries learns something about people, mostly that we never know what someone else is going through.

[Rolling it back and forth inside my hand

Pretending a sound mind that I don’t feel

Watching my fingers as they play and bend

Sensing the gripping of my thoughts of steel]

 

A marble is my brain. Sometimes I lack

The tight firm grip. And it would roll and fall

While I sit still. I cannot have it back.

I sit and I pretend. I try to call

 

The glossy marble – that untrue gemstone –

Inviting it to rest inside my skull,

A perfect fitting made of hollow bone.

My brain, bouncing around, is dusty and dull.

 

I keep it in my hand, and roll it to and fro

I clean it and I hope it fits. The glass is bright, aglow.

 

(Sonnet by SiRiChandra)

plentiful,elevenfold

more than peace

and paradimes

windowpanes. window panes

forget the days. forgive

the sun’s old tired gold lost found rays

in this best

of all possible worlds

let your heart

beat

your hands

breathe

 

a candelabra

of weary waiting eyes

a love, imagined

a list of things. a pile of rings.

project your own poignant preposterous grain onto my reality,

if you would, or could

canvasses like these

have no art without our own

For our last day of CW we went over some things about publication and how to dicipline ourselves as writers. Behind Ice Bat is a list of things us writers need to keep in mind:

 

* Time: protect our writing time! We should not let things like phones, internet, and friends/family interrupt our writing time.

 

*Presents: Its a motivation tool. Like finish 3 pages in the next hour and get yourself a cookie -- or something like that.

 

* Track writing time.

 

* Vacation: Genuine relaxation time so you won't get fried. Plus new experiences always help out w/ writing in the long run. =)

Out of Silence: Readings from the Afghan Women's Writing Project

Our puppy Lola rescued this little munchkin, as it was caught in a net. Gosh, what a tiny tinsy mousie!

We launched the Make My Day diary, a June-to-June Refugee Week diary written by young people who have recently arrived in the UK. The project and event were supported by John Lyon’s Charity, Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation and Arts Council England.

 

On 20th June we held a celebratory event at the Tricylce Theatre for all those who had taken part in the event.

Our goal in this assignment is make the ads for any "public services". I choose "Wear a helmet" to be my object. First time, when I intend to do this ads, I think about the darkart, to make the ads not so beautiful,... I would make it with body, blood,etc... But after finding the photo to fit my idea, I couldn't find any photos to use. So I changed the art direction to be more like a copy write ads. This is the final ads, I've just submit to my teacher. Hope it good!
