What is 'Yes'? How does 'Yes' feel? Where does 'Yes' take you?
Creative Experiment
Generate as many inflections and meanings for 'Yes' by saying simply 'Yes' as you can. Try this non-verbally. Expand by following 'Yes' with words that change the meaning. Begin to work with gesture and movement, adding a meaning and prompt that is relevant to you today. Work with a partner and/or stand in object to help inspire your investigations.
