In March we are focusing on women in collaboration with Alternative Arts annual Women’s History Month in East London. Join us for Talkaoke – an interactive talk-show, where you decide on the subjects. Just grab the mic and have your say!
How does Talkaoke work?
Talkaoke is an interactive talk-show, where the participants decide on the subjects. Each discussion is a journey from one unexpected subject to another: it can be topical, funny, deep, surreal, and everything in between. The format is simple: the Talkaoke host sits in the middle of a doughnut-shaped table and passes the mic around, inviting contributions and comments from each participant. Talkaoke host stimulates the collective imagination of the participants by expertly linking themes and opposing points of the conversation. Even though the session will have a central question and theme, we invite participants to be tangential and move towards related subjects. This way we create layers and frames of reference within the conversation, which helps break down the complexity of the central question and return to it later from new perspectives.
