A creative process to free your mind, and explore fresh perspectives.
The first three workshops sold out, so here's another opportunity:-)
Over the past 3 and a half years, I've written over 300 thought experiments (tiny stories that raise big questions). [Here's a bit about why I enjoy the practice.](https://experimentsingroupwisdom.substack.com/p/writing-thought-experiments)
In brief, writing thought experiments gives you the opportunity to:
• investigate ideas (old and new)
• work your imagination
• write creatively and playfully
• produce compelling conversation starters that you can share with friends and strangers to provoke meaningful discussions
In this workshop, I'll share my process and together we'll create new thought experiments by:
• Identifying areas of interest
• Gathering ingredients for thought experiments
• Imagining scenarios
• Constructing narratives
• Generating relevant, thought provoking questions
By the end of the evening we'll have
• had some thought provoking conversations
• become familiar with a new method for creative thinking
• written our own original material for future group discussions:-)
Although we’ll be learning a new technique we'll also be aiming to have an enjoyable evening, with good humour and fun. This will be less like school and more like a fun TEiP night out with an additional creative twist.
Who should come:
Everyone! We believe that the more perspectives, the richer the conversation. This group is not about being experts, it is about thinking creatively together and learning new ways to develop and communicate ideas.
Tickets
Space is limited (15 people) and tickets are £15.

Looking forward to meeting & talking with you!
