Group Meeting: Writing
After a brief break, Quiver enters the summer with a meeting about writing.
We invite all to participate in the writing of concepts that have emerged out of Quiver. It will begin with an informal Zoom meeting with a similar format to the reading groups that we have convened.
If you can, please come with a brief piece of writing (50-150 words?) exploring a specific concept from one of our previous nine sessions. Experiment with the format – consider glossories or lexicons, short stories or aphorisms, illustrations or diagrams, jokes or fictional stories, radio plays or playing cards, bibliographies or research-fictions, field manuals or practical guides... you get the idea.
The topics of our nine sessions have been:
1. Weapons
2. Subjects
3. Anti-Work
4. Exhaustion
5. Becoming-Woman
6. Crowned Anarchy
7. Institutional Analysis
8. Conspiracy
9. Exploits
If you would like, you listen to recording of those sessions as a refresher (Video / Audio).
Furthermore, we have provided two readings to jump start your writing experiments – McKenzie Wark’s “How to Beat Writer’s Block” and Lawrence Halpern’s “The RSVP Cycles” – we do not plan to discuss them as readings but instead use them as inspiration.
