Converstation Starters
Conversation starter 1: Emotional Effects of Artistic Work: Do you lean heavily toward deep thought provoking work that obsesses you long afterward? Technical, but purely entertaining/escape type work that lets you leave feeling up? In relation to this topic, in the sentence "When are you most inspired, weighed down, or free?", modify the choices alternately with the words 'creatively' or 'emotionally'. Can your answers help you make intentional choices for your own well being? Can this information help you plan a satisfying show? Discuss.
"Conversation starter 2: What image do the words "Creative Salon" inspire for you? Brainstorm with a friend.
Musing
Training: Keep your workout simple, go back to basics. Make one workout routine for the month using music, changing the music to allow you to immerse yourself in deep thought one week and good feelings the next. Let your creative thoughts flourish and compost in the background.
