Describe what the world will look like in 2150 in detail. Will we live in a similar setting to how we live now? Will humans begin to move to other planets? How will we go to school and work? Where will we get our food? What will we wear? How will we communicate with each other? Art: Draw a scene from what you think the world in 2150 will look like. Try to depict most elements of the world, such as multiple people interacting with one another, people going to school and work, and people enjoying their free time. How do people go from one place to another? Do people still talk to one another? Draw this scene in detail.

Listening to music is always an excellent way to inspire great writing. For this week’s prompt, we will be creating our own playlists made up of songs that spark creativity in us. Step 1: Make a list of 2-3 songs (it can be more or less than this depending on how much you want to write) that you love, intrigues you, paints a very clear image in your mind, or for whatever reason resonates deeply with you. Step 2: Listen to the first song, and write a short story revolving around the ‘plot’ of the song. For example, you can think about what caused the artist to write this song, which moments led up to it, what the lyrics refer to. If short stories do not interest you, you can write poetry instead, using some of the lyrics or responding to them. You can also choose to write a creative nonfiction piece, writing about what the song means to you, or when you first discovered it. Step 3: Repeat the previous steps with however many other songs you have on your list! Art: For this week’s art prompt, we will also be creating a playlist made out of songs we love. Choose 2-3 songs (it can be more or less), that ideally vary in tone, style, message, or genre. Starting with the first song, choose a medium that you think represents the song. For example, watercolor might be effective for soft, dreamy acoustic music, while charcoal might work better for dark, moody indie music. Listen to the song, and draw/paint whatever comes to mind. You may focus on the colors or shapes that remind you of the music, or you can illustrate a specific scene from the song. Repeat this process with the other songs that you have on your playlist!

Write something that takes a common trope and subverts it. Write a story where the reader expects an enemies to lovers storyline...but where it becomes clear they're not right for each other. Take a star -crossed lovers trope and make it clear that whatever is keeping them apart is actually legitimate. Have fun with it! Art Create a character through art. Make us understand something really important to them just by looking at them. Take "don't judge a book by its cover" and let us, somehow, judge the character by observing them. Writing: As we’re approaching the end of the semester, this week’s prompts will be a place for reflection. What are some things you did this term that you’re proud of? Where do you see more room for improvement? Every and any comments are encouraged.
Art: Take this time to reconstruct one of your first pieces. This harks on the reflection aspect, but see where you can incorporate new skills you’ve developed or utilize those you already have. |
