The Transformation Workshop is designed to assist people in realizing their fullest potential in concious states through communication and interactive projects.

The Transformation Workshop is an interactive project bent on delving into the mind of individuals during one on one encounters. With the help of a personal guide and the employment of everyday materials participants are encouraged to elect new ways of seeing themselves as individuals, as members of society and as messengers of thought. Participants will select an activity from a jar of options such as drawing, writing, growing taller, reading thoughts, mending, making gifts etc. The options will be carried out between each participant and me, the workshop guide. All aspects of each transformation will be considered, measured, and recorded from the onset of the interaction on through to the transformed state at the end. The guide will keep a workshop logbook and when the participants are done they will be able to post the goods created at the workshop on any communal message board of their choosing. Participants’ proclivity toward participation will prescribe how each interaction and transformation is fulfilled. New and random messages will enliven bulletin boards throughout the city, hooray!
