ECPSI (Session 5) [Commuter] - Writer's Studio

Designed for writers who want to investigate the craft of writing through experimentation with style, format, and media, students explore the possibilities of fiction, non-fiction, poetry, and hybrid practices as they investigate the many intersections between visual art and language, such as comics, artists' books, film, and performance. This one-week course offers a sampling immersion into interdisciplinary writing practices as experienced in studio writing courses at SAIC. Students will generate new writing and learn how to work through revision toward building future finished projects. Through traditional and unconventional forms of writing, students develop their own voice and vision, express ideas in new ways, and give their writing a new creative edge. With faculty guidance and peer support, students share their literary efforts in class and are assigned reading and writing exercises to clarify, expand, and challenge written expressions.
