Occult Poetry & (Soma)tic Rituals
with CA Conrad
Time: 10:00 to 13:00 (ONLINE)
Email unsettling@rietveldacademie.nl for more information and to join!
We will discuss how occult and paranormal experiences and practices of poets in the past show us how to trust these same forces are alive and at work for us today. Rumi, Hannah Weiner, Will Alexander, Hoa Nguyen, Alice Notely, and Ariana Reines are some poets whose work and practices we will investigate.
We will also discuss and build (Soma)tic Poetry Rituals together for our writing.
