Description (ECIAD)Starting with the premise that working in a context of multiple fluencies is an asset, this course explores the potential for the creation of texts through multiple languages and discourses. Students will engage in an array of creative writing experiments and linguistic play without having to conform to the strictures of grammar and standard English. Using processes of creative and speculative translation, students will investigate differing cultural and technical approaches to the writing process with the goal of developing their unique relationship to the material practice of writing. This course will be of interest to any students who want to engage with writing across different languages, whatever their levels of fluency.
