Each working group will implement the insights gained from the research in a workshop, providing fellow students with inspiration for their own design process:
Inspired by the Oulipo writers' group and concrete poetry, the students are encouraged to search for new word constellations.
→ Now it’s time to write the poem: Use the three given words and follow the rhyme scheme aabbcc—lines 1 and 2 rhyme, as do 3 and 4, and so on. Place the noun in the first line, the verb in the third, and the adjective in the fifth. All other words are up to you.
→ The poem contains these three words. The rhyme scheme aabbcc’guides you from verse to verse: line 1 rhymes with line 2, line 3 with line 4, and so on. In addition, the three words should be inserted into the first line of each rhyme. The verb belongs in the third line and the adjective in the fifth line.
→ Now the poem is changed, but do not stick to the meaning:
→ Choose a vowel (a, e, i, o, u). Every noun that does not contain this vowel is replaced by a noun with the vowel. Example: Tank becomes Kanne. (tank/jug).
→ A alliteration is found for each noun and placed before the noun. Example: nimble fox, racing rat.
→ Roll a number for each verse. The number rolled determines the word that stays. Everything else is crossed out.
Transfer the remaining words to a sheet of paper, but keep their position within the poem's structure.
