Cultivating new ways of reading.

Part hangout, part workshop, part lecture.

Current Experiment

Endings

How should we end things? In both the Wild West inspired films of Tarantino and Shakespeare's Hamlet, things end with bullets, swords, poison and a pile of bodies.

But what if an ending was not a termination, but circular, as when TS Elliot writes 'in my end is my beginning', as TS Eliot write in Four Quartets.

From the ways that narrative generates a sense of an ending, to the notorious proclamation that 'it is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism', this experiment invites us to think about how, from the political to the personal, endings shape us.
