Course overview
Our course encourages you to develop your writing by stepping outside your comfort zone and discovering the different approaches to verbal art that are possible today. This will invigorate your own practice, whether you are writing psychogeography, plays, novels, stories or something else. You will choose from a variety of modules, covering topics such as:
- Development of a novel plan, from research and concept-development, to plotting, character, and structure
- Experimental language play of the Oulipo group across the short story, autobiography, cartoons, cookery and theatre
- Relating magic to writing and creativity, both in theory and in practice
- Psychogeography, writing about walking, place, landscape, history and the psychic environment
- Poetic practice across experimental writing in poetry from the performative to the visual
