It would be a “Workshop on Workshops,” a score for how to design the conditions for compelling relational interactions that produce specific creative outcomes. I’d share it on Index Resources!

If you had to make a publication in one hour, what would it be about and how would it go out into the world?
Jane Seidel
Head of Audience & Analytics at Rest of World
I’d make a mini-zine called A Beginner’s Guide to Women’s Sports for people who don’t think they’re sports fans, then leave copies on subway cars or BART trains for bored commuters.

I think I’d design and print some leaflets advocating for some obscure political or cultural position, and then borrow my 12 year old downstairs neighbor’s remote control airplane and scatter them above a crowd.

It would be called “Excerpt of the Day,” and it would be a giant Whatsapp group where I would solicit and publish pics of everyone’s favorite passages from whatever book they’re reading right now. :)

I would ask every person on a single city block to give me one sentence and turn them into a monologue performed on-site.
Lisa Cheng Smith
Founder of Yun Hai Taiwanese Pantry
I’d love to do a pamphlet called BEAN PASTE and quickly differentiate between all the different kinds of fermented soybean pastes out there and explain what they are and what they might be used for. The limitations of the English language has labeled a huge variety of bean products to simply as bean paste, to everyone’s confusion.
