I am very grateful for Peter Thomas writing workshop, ideas and tips about free and academic writing. Since I was not able to participate during my Module 1, i am really content i could hear some new and useful thoughts about writing. So, Peter gave us in the beginning of the workshop a little task to write about WHAT IS WRITING?
I wanted to feel that free-writing flow, i did not want to think a lot, and to implement only the impulse of the moment...so i wrote....
every experience starts with an impulse.
find an impulse in you own hand and just start ...
throughout that impulse we expressing ourselves, sharing embodied thoughts through the words
we are connected in a very intrinsic way with the experience, paper and pan at the given moment.
Somebody mentioned that writing is a capturing a moment... agree, and than we are framing that moment into something meaningful, valuable, with satisfaction..This is a process, a constant process of reviewing and rewriting, but also improving process where we reflecting our practice, ideas, thoughts, where we are fully present. Either freestyle blog, or academic writing demands a hard work, own toolbox, own will-power, focus to get immediately to work. so, the one thing as writers we need, JUST START and keep going!!!:)

How will what we are doing affect or maybe influence on people who are not us? (i mean here on dance, movement teachers, artists, performers), how they will feel, or what they know in the course of what happens and how we can carry out the people involved , the spaces, the time in order to make sense of experience, ideas...and how to entwine an element of quality there? how we create the truth, the real experience? All about ethics is make sure people do not get hurt, insult (this brings me to Plato(w...

MODULE 3//Sept 27 2021 -WHAT AM I DOING?

WHAT AM I REALLY DOING? Tonight's we had a very useful Module 3 discussion about what we are doing in our research, how we are framing, finding clarity, scratching the surface, focus on relevant, how we specify what we are doing....so after the discussion and really thankful after some clear questions, i would like to say about my project... Still my research title will not be my setting stone and I will be flexible and open as much as I can..  As part of my 2 month physically active researching period on a project Embodied flow in motion I am interested in exploring embodied flow in motion in 7 phases (slow flow, free flow, bound flow, open-spiral fluidity, fluid touch, floating sound, imagery flow, flow re-patterning) through embodied movement practices. In the context of this research, for me embodiment through fluidity has many stages and possibility to achieve fluid movement requires knowledge and experience of moving the body according to feelings, present state of min...
