It’s that time in the semester—when the grading is closing in on us, our brains are fried, and it seems the stress will never end… But DSC chartered organization Text, Textile, Texture Studio has a stress-busting creative outlet for all that tension…
Tuesday, December 11th, 2012
3:30pm–9pm
Graduate Center, Room 5409
Come play with us on Tuesday, Dec 11 and make stuff with your hands as well as your intellect. Find out if you agree with Sedgwick that:
“[T]he sense of touch makes nonsense out of any dualistic understanding of agency and passivity; to touch is always already to reach out, to fondle, to heft, to tap, or to enfold, and always also to understand that other people or natural forces as having effectually done so before oneself, if only in the making of the textured object.”
The material culture of the 3Text Studio is available to you! Use our papers, felt, fabrics, rubber stamps, inks, et alia to make an articulated puppet, an accordion book, or even a (queer) holiday card. No special skills or talents are needed to participate and have a great time.
Stop by room 5409 any time between 3:30pm and 9pm, or RSVP to schedule a hexaflexagon tutorial.
