Monday is a start of a busy weekday, you know that there are times that we wake up in the morning every Monday with a part of weekend hang over still left in us, sometimes we find ways just to give a little CPR to our creative juices, my technique is that I go out and meet new people, observe the action around me, walk alone around Manila, or just read a newspaper just to get new ideas and pump my brain in order for me to move on for my project.
But hey! going to a nice spa is also helpful, but if you got tired of doing the same thing over and over again, then I suggest you try attend this Popcorn Mondays event at iAcademy every Monday this August, an event that can help to wake up your creative spirit.
here are the scheds.
August 5 - Drum circle
Aug 12 - Mind reading
Aug 19 - Monologue
Sept 2 - Spoken word jam
all events starts at 6pm
let me paste here the details of the event of iAcademy.
Monday is usually the least anticipated day of the week, but iACADEMY, one of the country’s leading design, business and information communication technology schools, is going to change that. Beginning this August, the school will hold Popcorn Mondays, a series of events designed to bring out the creative spirit in everyone.
The first session on August 5 will feature Drum Circle, a workshop that will teach participants how to play drums. Kaya Green Band, the musical act behind “Bayani Ka”, the official theme of the Philippine team to the Homeless World Cup 2010, will be on hand to how to do basic beats for the first three hours. The activity will culminate with a jamming session, so prepare for a night of good vibes.
The following week, August 12, we focus the spotlight on renowned "Mental Assassin" Justin Piñon. A mentalist who excels at reading minds and manipulating behavior, Mr. Piñon shall use psychology, body language reading, hypnosis and the art of showmanship for the audience's entertainment. The highlight of the night's event shall culminate with Mr. Piñon sharing some of the industry's most closely guarded trade secrets. He will also impart his knowledge for those who are curious, open-minded and brave.
For the third session on August 19, award-winning play The Vagina Monologues (Usapang Puki) will take center stage with theater actress Opaline Santos. A groundbreaking work by Eve Ensler, the play conceives of the vagina as a tool of female empowerment and focuses on issues including women’s vulnerability, fantasies, sexual experiences and self-discovery.
The last week will be capped off by a Spoken Word Jam featuring Romancing Venus on September 2. Spoken word jams are open-mic events that are all about playing with language and sounds to express yourself. You can spice things up by being humorous, or you can shake everyone up by baring your soul. You can go earthy by chanting to the beat of bongo drums, or you can be cool by rapping and beat-boxing. However you want to present yourself, there’s only one requirement: that you be true to yourself and connect with the live audience.
