Whether we are multilingual, bilingual, or even monolingual, our language use is informed by multiplicities. We mix multiple forms in our mouths as we move among and across different language codes and levels of meaning, intimacy, and formality. This workshop offers a space to think and write in these multiplicities through multilingual creative practice. It features readings by Aminata Ndiaye and Peng Hsu from the eohippus pamphlet series Migrating Pedagogies. Their readings will be followed by a guided activity in which participants will generate their own writing. The workshop is open to all! No previous writing or art experience is required. It is for anyone interested in the creative potential to move among and across languages and language dialects.
