Living Room Tuesday, April 24 Text Corpse (7p)

Text Corpse

Exquisite Corpse- a French Surrealist game in which a poem is passed around and participants add the lines with limited knowledge of what was previously written.

Text message- brief communication between two mobile devices.

We will be combining these two things. A prompt will be texted to everyone and then we will build a text corpse.

This will be a rare moment when you will be asked to bring your cellphone to a poetry event. Jeremy Springsteed is your fearless leader, but he is on another call right now. Leave a message & he’ll call you back as soon as he is able.

The details:

Writers of all ages, backgrounds and skill levels gather Tuesdays at 7P to read new work, the work of someone else or to just be in the engaging company of other writers. Your donation of $5 helps SPLAB continue our programming. Please bring 8 copies of the work you plan to read. Copies are no longer provided by SPLAB.

Living Room happens @ SPLAB in the Cultural Corner at 3651 S. Edmunds. (Look for the SPLAB sign on the wall and come inside.) We’re 2 blocks from the Columbia City Link Light Rail Station. (Parking is available on the school grounds.)
