Festival - Cadence Video Poetry Festival 2023 [Hybrid]
The body is a spiraling source of information, holding memory, intuition, and shifting energetic avenues. Often, writing is considered a disembodied act, but the physicality of this practice exists on a much deeper level than simply excavating the mind for language. How might different areas of the body be conduits to the subconscious? How might exploring these spaces allow us to tap into uncharted areas of our creativity?
In this workshop, Amy Hirayama and Emily Mundy will combine movement, guided meditation, and sensory exploration with generative writing prompts to steer writers through the energetic channels of their own bodies, in hopes of accessing surprising information for their creative work. Our intention is to offer mechanisms of somatic travel to support participants in deeper poetic listening and processing.
How to prepare:
-Participants are invited to bring a cushion or mat to sit on the floor. Chairs will be provided for those who need it.
-Wear comfortable clothes and socks for movement.
-Writing utensils and paper will be provided, you are welcome to bring your own notebook.

Accessibility
Ticketing, concessions, cinemas, restrooms, and our public edit lab are located on Northwest Film Forum's ground floor, which is wheelchair accessible. We have a limited number of assistive listening devices available for programs hosted in our larger theater, Cinema 1. These devices are maintained by the Technical Director, and can be requested at the ticketing and concessions counter.
The Forum does NOT have assistive devices for the visually impaired, and is not (yet) a scent-free venue. Our commitment to increasing access for our audiences is ongoing, and we welcome all public input on the subject!
If you have additional specific questions about accessibility at our venue, please contact our Patron Services Manager at maria@nwfilmforum.org
