Oops! The Poetry of Mitsakes
Sat 19 Nov 2016 to Sat 19 Nov 2016
Be inspired by mistakes and missteps on a voyage of imaginative discovery with New Zealand Poet Laureate Bill Manhire

Oops! ‘The poets have names for the sea,’ wrote W H Auden. ‘The ports have names for the sea,’ responded the typesetter. One reason Auden was a great poet is that he kept the mistake.

This workshop will explore some of the ways in which accidents and mistakes are linked to imaginative discovery. How can we generate and use accident in the work we do?
