Join me for a half-pie - but not at all average - project instead.

The Half is a 50 day creative inquiry led by me (Amanda Billing). It's facilitated via email, readings & reflections, regular Zooms and IRL meetups, a Whatsapp Community and/or IG group chat (whichever platform suits you best). 

You can be involved to the extent that you want to be. The group experience is pretty powerful but there's no pressure to "join in" if you feel like being a lone wolf. I did my first 100 day project by myself and it changed my life. When I led this year's cohort through our first 100 day journey, it changed things for many of our band, too.

You can approach your project in a couple of different ways:

(1) as "a thing a day", eg a photo a day, a drawing or painting a day, 30 minutes of writing, a poem a day; everything essentially the same, with a consistency of process and form, 

or

(2) you can approach it the way an artist might: as an inquiry. There's a process/material/tool you want to explore and you focus your making on that process but you're not necessarily repeating anything.

Either way, the idea is to use an explicitly creative process to find out about something, documenting your journey as you go. This is not about starting an exercise regime or changing a habit however you'll definitely feel more alive and you may end up doing less doom-scrolling.

I will encourage you to document your journey online - privately to begin with and if it suits your mode/medium.

We will have at least one Planning Zoom ahead of the start. You will hear about how daily projects work and get advice on how to design a really good one.

We start on October 12th and Day 50 is the last day of November.

Just in time to make your Christmas presents... .
