"Notions
of Identity" Workshop
Exploring
Definitions, Ideas and Practices
Organised by:
Gap Year
College
Thursday, 29th May
to sunday, 1st June 2008
(4 days)
The identity workshop has been designed to examine our notions of
identity and how they affect our lives at a minute, everyday level. The
consciousness "I am" does not allow us to escape the question, "Who am
I?" However, our responses to this question are largely implicit and
automatic. The purpose of this workshop is to make conscious what might
have become automatic or unconsious.
To understand processes
behind the construction of identities in some sense to understand how
we are currently functioning in our lives. Unconscious or unexamined
identities make us do the things we do, think the way we think, fell
the way we feel, and enter into conflicts in ways that are reflected
our world.
