Is This Something: Step-by-Step Workshop for a New Collection

In this second “Is This Something” episode, the tables are turned, and Joy and Teresa are thinking through Teresa’s idea fragments for a new collection based on Polaroids and poems she crafted last year while saying goodbye to her childhood home. The back and forth conversation is a template for how creators can talk through concepts to transform rough ideas into finished pieces of art. The creativity back-and-forth continues with a “last thing I wrote down” segment where they share notations from their journaling, and ends with memories from the dreaded “After School Specials” that contained dire warnings of the dangers of life for 1980s kids. The episode ends with a quick profile of Instagram follower @poeticallyfound and the world of blackout poetry.
