Icarus Session

Icarus Session presented and inspired around the world by Seth Godin.

The short version: ten or fifty or a hundred people come together and follow the simple rules of the Icarus Session, outlined below.

You meet, connect, support and then go back into the world,

ready to make a ruckus.

The rules are simple:

The Icarus Sessions are a challenging new way to bring your art forward.

Not to make a sales pitch, not to get customers or patrons, but to find the courage to stand up and say, "here, I made this."

You can attend a session without presenting, of course.

A presentation at an Icarus Session is 140 seconds long. You can go shorter, but not a second longer.

You can use slides, or handouts, or even better, just bring your enthusiasm.

The assignment: Tell the group about your art.

What have you created? What frightened you? What matters?

Not a pitch. An act of brave vulnerability.

I made this.

It scared me.

This might not work.

Here's how it changed me.

What do you think?
