## **Communications** *Talking, texting, typing — the choreography of staying connected.* This week, the focus is on **how people communicate in public** — phones, gestures, conversations, glances, and distractions. We’re surrounded by it: * Heads tilted toward screens * People talking, laughing, deciding * Fingers tapping out messages * Cables dangling from pockets * Video calls on sidewalks * Loud Bluetooth conversations no one asked to overhear * Quiet moments of connection—or isolation—in a crowd Let’s photograph **what communication looks like today**, out on the street. Person to person, person to device, person to the world. *** ### What to Look For: * **People mid-call** — expressive gestures, facial tension, pacing * **Texting and typing** — heads down, thumbs moving, lost in thought * **Groups talking** — animated, laughing, arguing, leaning in * **This isn't just phone** — its about people sharing ideas, jokes, decisions and commentary * **One-sided conversations** — people speaking into the air via earbuds * **Body language** — implications to the person nearby, or hardware device; posture shaped by headphones, screens, or social cues * **Solo moments** — someone sitting alone, preoccupied with their screen This is about **motion, emotion, and connection and disconnection** — how we communicate *with, without*, or *through* devices *** ### Approach & Style Ideas: * Shoot **fast** — gestures and expressions come and go quickly * Use a **longer lens** if you want to keep distance * Or go **wide and close** to emphasize context and contrast * Try **candid street portraits** of people mid-gesture * Look for **layers** — someone talking in the foreground, someone texting in the back * Play with **reflection** — phones in windows, faces in screens * Go for **motion blur** if it helps tell the story of urgency or distraction *** ### Why This Matters: We’re all constantly communicating — but often, we’re not really *present*. This assignment is a way to document the **modern rituals of connection** — or perhaps, **disconnection**. It’s a chance to photograph the **little human dramas** happening everywhere: the argument on or off the phone, the joke shared, the waiting, the searching, the scrolling. *** ### Meet-Up Details: **Start:** 2:30 PM **Location:** Mong Kok MTR Exit D3, street level, by the phone booth—how appropriate! **Debrief:** 4:00 PM at Couch Club (subject to change). G/F T.O.P. Building, 700 Nathan Road, Mong Kok. Let’s talk about what we saw — and what people *didn’t* see, while staring into their screens. *** ### After the Walk: Post up to **5-7 images** that capture **communication in action** — or in absence. Look for **emotion, contrast, and expression**. What does it look like when people are reaching out — and what does it look like when they’re not? COMMENT on your fellow photographers work. Constructive criticism is welcome, but the idea is to be involved.

Yoga and Pilates are the good exercises to let you to keep fit, enhance the ability of core muscle to perform well in sports and reduce the risk of getting injury. Finally, we'll do the full body stretching after the exercises to relax.

**General idea:** Join us for a relaxed people-drawing-people activity over coffee or a drink. Both newcomers and experienced participants are welcome to join. **💰 Price** : Only pay for your drink! We don't charge a fee. **✅ Guidelines**: * Bring your own paper, pencil, drawing tablet etc ✏️ * Greet the host(s)! * Buy yourself a drink (tea, coffee, sodas, etc) * Find a seat and start drawing your surroundings (especially the people). 📣 **Join our socials!** Follow [our official Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/people_drawing_people/) for event photos **@peopledrawingpeople** Grow the event by sharing your own drawings and tag us! 📸 **Photos** Hosts will also take descriptive shots of the event and your drawings to promote this meetup to new members outside. If you prefer not to appear in photographs just let them know. **[ Optional activities ]** For variety we may suggest optional activities which you can choose to participate in or not. These include volunteering as a model for the group, or partnering up with people for longer model/artist exchanges, skill sharing, etc.
