When: Saturday May 30 & Sunday May 31.
There will be two sessions on Saturday from 11am-1pm ET & 2pm-4pm ET. On Sunday, we will meet once from 2pm-4pm ET.
Please note that the workshop will not be recorded.
Where: Zoom
Tarot cards are symbolically rich, always signaling beyond themselves and inviting a range of possible interpretations. Their often ambiguous, metaphoric imagery makes them somewhat unruly, impossible to control, and conducive to signaling beyond the limits of dominant narratives.
In this weekend workshop, we will look at philosophical orientations that can inform interpretive work—namely, post-structuralism and deconstruction—and learn practical ways to apply the ideas toward unusual knowledges. One of the workshop’s main emphases is on interpretations that are both reproductive (attending closely and carefully to the interpretations we currently have) and productive (capable of going beyond them).
The workshop will take part in three sessions, two on Saturday and one on Sunday. Each session will include a talk, exercise, and time for discussion.
The exercises will require that participants have a set of cards. If this poses a barrier for participation, do reach out. If you have other access needs, also reach out. No prior reading is required, however I will teach from John Caputo’s book Hermeneutics: Facts and Interpretation in the Age of Information and Anonymous’ Meditations on the Tarot.
This workshop is open to all and beginners are welcome.
