Incantations have the power to cast spells and conjure other worlds. In this workshop, we'll look at the poetry of Etel Adnan, Inger Christensen, and Fred Moten to better understand how rhythm, repetition and ritual can be harnessed to their full power to build a poetics of incantation. This is a generative poetry writing course which will include in-class writing exercises and resources to write & exchange work after the workshop.
