Abstract Conversation - Discussion Series
My first offering of the new year is a lecture/discussion series called “Abstract Conversations.” Each hour-long zoom session consists of a theme that I’ll speak on for about fifteen or twenty minutes. The rest of our time will be a Q & A type format, leaving room for open dialogue and writing. I’ve been musing on these themes for the last few weeks and I’m excited to bring them into shared space to see what we can uncover together.
