Life Long Learning – The Art and Science of Storytelling
Sep 12 @ 6:00 AM – 8:00 AM

Storytelling has been the most effective way of memorably communicating since the first utterances of our species. It connects us, links us to our past and present, and offers a glimpse into our future. It’s a means to a collective and shared memory, a basis for tradition and a conduit for the most fundamental aspects of culture. Come explore the art and science of storytelling as Joseph Ramunni traces its roots from our earliest traditions to modern films and finally, to the tweets that shape today’s political landscape.

Lifelong Learning: Creative Song Writing with iPads
Nov 13 @ 5:00 AM – 7:00 AM

This two-part workshop will introduce participants to creative music-making with iPads and other simple digital musical instruments.

Participants will be guided in musical activities, which will include improvisation, song-making, exploration of sound, and learning to play personally meaningful songs with digital instruments.

Prior musical experience is not necessary – Andrea’s approach is based on the idea that we are ALL musicians, and her aim is to explore the ways in which technology can provide us with the means to engage with music-making.

NOTE: This is a two-day workshop and, although not mandatory, it is suggested that participants be available for both dates. iPads will be supplied for each participant.

Workshop 1: Tuesday, 13 November, 10 – 12pm
Workshop 2: Tuesday, 27 November, 10 – 12pm

Lifelong Learning: Creative Song Writing with iPads
Nov 27 @ 5:00 AM – 7:00 AM

This two-part workshop will introduce participants to creative music-making with iPads and other simple digital musical instruments. Digital musical instruments (including iPads) offer an inclusive opportunity for collaboration and creative expression through music. Participants will be guided in musical activities, which will include improvisation, song-making, exploration of sound, and learning to play personally meaningful songs with digital instruments.

Prior musical experience is not necessary – Andrea’s approach is based on the idea that we are ALL musicians, and her aim is to explore the ways in which technology can provide us with the means to engage with music-making.

NOTE: This is a two-day workshop and, although not mandatory, it is suggested that participants be available for both dates. iPads will be supplied for each participant.

Workshop 1: Tuesday, 13 November, 10 – 12pm
Workshop 2: Tuesday, 27 November, 10 – 12pm

The workshop will be held in the Lifelong Learning boardroom, room 201 (second floor). The boardroom is not accessible for all as it is located on the second floor of the EQLC.

Space is limited to 10 participants, registration is required and available to only Lifelong Learning members.
