The session at New River Studios for last year's Skronkfest focussed on 'Weird Feelings' (the curious cousins of the emotion family) and proved a very popular and fun event. This year, I'm leaving the workshop specifics a little more open, but I do have some new, fun and hopefully insightful practical approaches to try... See you there!
I am Just a Little Emotional is a workshop analysing emotion state theory and how we can exploit this in performance. The objective is to investigate routes between cause and effect using basic emotion psychology concepts, and with specific reference to Plutchik’s Wheel of Emotions, develop a practical, interpretive experiment system.
The Workshop is open to all creative disciplines and all skill levels: Centred around a practical session, participants respond to single emotion state terms using their chosen medium, then question possible carriers or motivators which led to their interpretations. The objective is to strengthen the dialogue between what we see, hear or feel, and how we react to this, creatively. An opening lecture briefing introduces key theories of emotion along with tools and processes to aid in exploiting emotion based approaches as strategy. The participatory nature and subjective response sets generated from the practical mean that plenty of time will be allocated for discussion, as this sharing is where emotion-outcome routes become clearer and better understood.
