#cmrhythm

Creative Mornings İzmir’in Kasım ayı buluşmasında, konuğumuz Nur Niyaz Bildik @nur_niyaz ile ritmin büyüleyici dünyasına dalış yaptık! 🌟

Niyaz ile birlikte; her birimizin farklı alanlarda bulduğu ritmin, kolektif bir örüntü oluşturarak birleştiği gerçeğini deneyimledik. Ayrıca ritmin, zamanla olan ilişkimizi düzenleyen sihirli bir anahtar olabileceğini konuştuk. 🗝️

Ayrıca; sabah sayfaları, ses kaydı almak ve yazmak gibi ritüellerle güne başlamanın önemi üzerine keyifli sohbetler gerçekleştirdik.

RHYTHM – was our theme in October. And it was chosen by us (yeah, what an honor) and illustrated by our former speaker and Basel based illustrator Patrizia Stalder.

Our Speaker Armando Braswell, a professional dancer, teacher, and entrepreneur, describes rhythm as the heartbeat of life and a cornerstone of artistic expression. Together with him we explored how rhythm can guide our movements, enrich our creative endeavors, and become the pulse that animates our collective experience.

Thanx Armando for hosting us at Braswell Arts Center.

Michelle Hernandez spoke to November’s theme RHYTHM.

Hosted at Mercury Project on Friday, November 17th.

Our global theme for November is RHYTHM. It was chosen by our Basel chapter and illustrated by Patrizia Stalder.  

What rhythms set your pace? A celestial rhythm is pulsing all around us. The earth spins. The sun rises and sets. The moon pulls and releases the tides twice every day. The seasons loop each year. Natural, constant patterns of back-and-forth. But we also live amidst the unnatural rhythms of flickering fluorescent lights, pinging notifications, and vehicles idling at traffic signals. Rhythm can light you up or burn you out. 

Rhythm is the heartbeat of creativity. It provides the structure we crave; a framework for ideas to take shape. By recognizing patterns and breaking them, we can find our unique voice. 

Rhythm serves as a catalyst for the power of a dancer’s movement. The pacing of a poet's sentences. The cadence of an actor’s voice. The timing of a comedian’s punchline. The strokes of a painter’s brush. The meter of a musician’s notes. All that creativity just keeps going and flowing. Rat-a-tat-tat. Tap into your own rhythm and follow wherever it takes you. 

Chiara Francese è curiosa di natura, autocritica per vocazione e iperattiva per necessità. Attrice e doppiatrice dal 2011 tra Torino e Milano, ha esplorato anche il mondo della radio, dell'improvvisazione teatrale, del canto, dei podcast, degli audiolibri, del cinema, della pubblicità e ha presentato gli eventi più improbabili tra cui molti raduni di fanclub di musicisti di cui è appassionata. 

Nel tempo libero (se ne rimane) colleziona live e setlist e scrive “recensioni non-tecniche” per la pagina “Nonchiamatemigroupie”. Non potendo evidentemente diventare una rockstar, è riuscita tuttavia a far parte, come voce narrante, degli album di Ghemon (E vissero feriti e contenti) e Marracash (Persona) e a partecipare, in qualità di corista del Grande Coro Hope, di cui fa parte dal 2000, all'ultimo tour dei Pooh (2023) sul palco di San Siro e dell'Arena di Verona.

How do you keep your own beat? Listen to your breath. Listen to your heart.
