Expanding consciousness is not a grand spell. As we learn more about the meaning beyond our gestures, the hand of our consciousness extends. Additionally, its mystery does not vanish when analyzed and causally understood.
\nTo properly read gestures intuitively, we will go through the steps of reading them counter-intuitively through symbols and meaning. These are the \u2018Gestures\u2019 we learn from Flusser. However, as long as we read, understand, analyze, and symbolize them, they do not exist in the world as gestures. We will perform these gestures, whether they are analyzed or unanalyzed or not meant to be analyzed.
\nThis workshop offers a significant opportunity for you to practice how human thought is manifested in the world through art, technology, movement, and more, and how to make it happen. You can participate as an artist, scholar, worker, chef, lover, gardener, smoker, or in any other identity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
