Philosophy Walk and Sketches at the Park (Artsy Club Collab)
Details
Let's get out of the usual indoor cafe setting to stretch our legs and burn calories for our first philosophy walk meetup!
This will be our first collaboration with the Artsy Club. We will start with a walking discussion connecting art and philosophy, walking in pairs or threes around the Makati CBD. At the end of the walk, we'll have a sketching session at Ayala Triangle. This will be one of our most interactive meetups yet.
Philosophy Walks & Sketches at The Park Programme:
- Introduction about the groups and activities
- Ice breaker question: What is your most useful/useless talent?
- Main questions during the walk:
1. What does perfection mean to you?
2. What does perfection look like in your craft or field?
3. What does failure look like in your work?
4. What do you want others to experience with your work?
5. Is perfection a good or a harmful thing?
6. What do you want to achieve with your work?
7. What is your motivation in achieving your standard?
8. Do you surround yourself with people with high standards? Route:
Starting point: Our Common Place, Greenbelt 5. With a stop at UCM Library, Legazpi Village, crossing Ayala Avenue to Salcedo Village, then a final pit stop at The Shops at Ayala Triangle Gardens for a freshening up before setting a picnic at Ayala Triangle Park for the sketching session.
The sketching session will draw inspiration from the what was discussed during the walk so that the participants can have an idea with what to draw.
