RSVP here or on facebook for location details. Some snacks will be provided, but feel free to bring along your own home cooking.

ITL #7 - Inspiration

Imagined Therefore Limitless wants to shake off the winter blues with you. The first reading night of 2010 is on a theme near and dear to my heart: inspiration. We've all encountered some piece of writing that moved us to be a better person, to create something, to follow our guts, or to make change. I can think of no better way to get through the dark days of waiting for spring than to be reminded of how motivation and creativity can come together. Share your stories.

Please RSVP in the comments, on facebook, or at imaginedlimitless at gmail.com. Location information will be provided. As always, snacking contributions are welcome but not obligatory.

ITL #6 - Ghost Stories

One of the inspirations behind ITL was my love of spookiness. Fortunately, Imagined Therefore Limitless knows someone with the perfect place for an evening of haunting tales and flickering firelight. Maybe we'll play "Light as a feather, stiff as a board" or "Bloody Mary" before the night is out...

Space is limited, RSVP is required. Light refreshments provided, bring something if you want to. If you are unable to attend, but want to participate, comment to the blog or email imaginedlimitless@gmail.com and we'll work something out.

Looking forward to listening and laughing with you!

The standard ITL disclaimers: 1. Reading is not necessary, although it is encouraged 2. This event will be recorded.

ITL #3 - Oratory Reading Event

Ring in the new year and the new President whilst celebrating Martin Luther King, Jr. Day with the first Imagined Therefore Limitless of 2009!!! After a hiatus, the reading series is back and the timing is serendipitous. This evening will be devoted entirely to oratory. Dig out a speech you cherish, investigate a political or pop culture figure, and share some words of wisdom!

Oratory

Because this project is still embryonic, it is not yet feasible to hold the reading event in a public space. Please email for location details if needed. RSVPs are required, space is limited. ITL will provide minimal snacks and beverages, please feel free to contribute something as well if you are able.

What qualifies as oratory? Well, lots of things. For our purposes, speeches given by historical or living persons are ideal. Sorry, theatre junkies, leave your monologues at home for now.

The theme was inspired by a desire to research Winston Churchill (and, yes, I will be reading one of his speeches) and by ITL's resident sound guru, Brendan, who has an incredible Martin Luther King, Jr. presentation to share. Whatever you do DO NOT bring something you, or someone you know even, has written. Feel free to address any questions or concerns in comments to this post or email imaginedlimitless@gmail.com or post on the ITL facebook wall.

Which brings us to an important point: the goal is for the reading series to be something that is open and accessible to a community. And to be something that helps create community. Don't just sit there, take part!

The ITL blog, facebook page, and goodreads group are the first teeny steps in this direction. But hopefully you will all help them to be significant. Share your thoughts about the pieces you're considering, what you choose to read, the work you hear, or the reading series as a concept. Write comments! Constructive criticism and suggestions for future events are also welcome. Access to a free or nearly-free public space, preferably in Cambridge, is at the top of the wishlist right now, so if you have any suggestions or tips, pass that info along.

Two important ITL notes. You are not required to read, although it is encouraged. We are friends getting together to hang out and read to each other; the idea is not to have anyone feel put on the spot. It's a good idea to bring something to read, in case you feel inspired. Secondly, this event will be recorded. If you particularly do not want to be posted for posterity to the blog, please let me know. Otherwise, it is assumed you consent to the use of any photographs, audio, or video that comes out of the reading series that might include you.
