SUMMARY:In the Hut of a Thousand Suns
DESCRIPTION:  \nExploring the Nature Of ‘Evil’ Through Folktales\, Storytelling\, Creative Activities & Deep Conversation\n  \nWe’ve never lived in a more profound paradox: our destruction of the Earth and ourselves through climate collapse\, the escalation of A.I.\, the increasing loss of human rights\, while simultaneously facing unprecedented opportunities to develop our consciousness\, understanding of interconnectedness\, and ethical individuality. \n\nParadox is ripe with possibilities; folktales are riddled with paradox\, refuse ‘standard rules of behaviour’ and put forward dilemma\, questions\, and contradictions. They force us to develop moral-ethical imagination\, our ability to think in new\, unexpected ways\, see parallels and relationships which hadn’t existed before\, and become at least dimly aware of the complexity of our inner-selves (Spaulding).\n\nStorytelling has always been something we share\, and folktales are part of our human biology. When we hear a story\, as a couple\, family\, or community\, our brains harmonise. Through creative images and inspiration provided by stories\, we get inside ideas together – like an orchestra\, synchronising individual skills and instruments to interpret the idea of the symphony to create music in which everyone a has a part. Folktales offer innovative strategies for survival\, that aren’t unrealistic dreams\, but observations and aspirations for the world we live in. And our insistence on belonging\, community\, and human connection is one of the greatest acts of courage and resistance in the face of oppression (O’Donohue).\n\nWhat can you expect from this seminar? Storytelling that initiates both community and individuality. Folktales that reveal how and why loneliness and isolation attract Evil\, why unused creative power\, transgression and disrespect lack awareness and carry the potential of self-destruction. You’ll experience the power of Story and storytelling\, gain an understanding of the importance of opening and closing story-space\, access tools that craft the telling of tales and build valuable insight into the theme and the Fifth Secret (Steiner): Evil exists so we wake up\, transform it and move toward Spirit-soul-consciousness. \nHow much does it cost?  \nStandard $350\nEarly Bird Singles $290\nCouples p.p. $250\nTeams [p.p.] $225 \nWhen is it on? \n12/13 November; 19/20 November  \nVenues \nLaunceston Venue: Tamar Valley Steiner Early Childhood 41 French Str\, Launceston \nHobart (Huntingfield) Venue: Tarremah Steiner School\, ‘Silvereye Room’\, 27 Nautilus Grove\, Huntingfield 7055\n \nBookings \nBook here! \n  \nFor more information \nContact Iris Curteis  mob: 0487 719 476 \nAbout Iris Curteis \nI am a Storyteller and Social Artist; I encountered Anthroposophy as an 18-year-old\, and met wonderful\, inspiring teachers in Europe and Australia. My background includes studies in visual art\, storytelling\, speech formation\, and dramatic art (Europe)\, B.A. and B.A. hon. in creative writing\, and a Ph.D. on storytelling and community building (Australia). This workshop is ‘experiential’\, interactive and practical. It offers space for deep conversations about how and why storytelling empowers our imagination\, and the many ways creativity and creative thinking encourage us to appreciate our lives as works of art.
