In this course, students will study, and frame with increasing accuracy, their own creative signatures of history, practice, and voice within their chosen field. In particular, students will 3 focus on the history and practice of creatively “telling” the life story of a project, person, or dream that pertains to exploring the life of their own projects. In this course of creative communications and “authorship,” whether authoring a novel, a project, class materials, a film or presentation, students will learn how to cast creative light on what is otherwise left unseen and unfelt without their illumination. Students will study the discipline of creative impact in telling and constructing a life narrative, especially in relation to the creator’s own decisions for “what is at stake” on creative perspective. The course therefore can also pave the way, for exploring, generation to generation, what constitutes an ‘experimental’ work, from both individual and intercultural perspectives.
