Reimagine the DJ as an archivist, selector, de/reconstructor and amplifier of music. How might a poet apply these approaches to words? Explore poems by mixing and remixing languages, voices, soundscapes and worlds. Build shared learning through example writings, conversatio, and exercises inspired by digging, remixing, sampling, scratching, blending and a deep love for music.
Open to all ages and writing backgrounds/experiences.
