Come out Sunday night for another just-for-fun slam. This week we'll hold the Finish the Poem Slam. The winner will receive a most excellent prize. We'll provide the first and last lines for the poem(s), you create the rest of the poem. Standard slam rules apply (3 minute limit, no props, etc.). Round one: "Greetings from Worcester" / "Wish you were here."
Round two: "The moon" / "sleep" This is a great opportunity to witness the creative process of the participants in action. Hear how each starts with a couple of common lines and how they are moved by them in different ways. It should be an exciting night for both the slammers and audience. Come on down | | comments: Leave a comment |

| Guy and I have just watched a few videos of scientists explaining their dissertations...through interpretive dance.
The best one was The Vitamin D Function in Beta cells, where Vitamin D caused a beach party and then taught the beta cell pilates. http://gonzolabs.org/dance/
