#104: Imagine ‘Imagine’

Sit and listen to Imagine by John Lennon and Yoko Ono and truly imagine everything he sings about.  Really take your time to think about each line and visualise each thing.

What do you see?

#030: Lightbulbs

A gallery with blank walls.  Around the room are many bean bags and other comfortable chairs.  In the middle of the room is a long table full of pots with pens in and sticky notes in boxes.  Several copies of the following instructions are fixed to the table:

“Sit down and have a think.  Imagine.  Invent.  Have an idea.

Write the idea down on as many sticky notes as you need and then stick those on the walls.

If you need some inspiration, before or after, read what people have written before.

Go home.  

Keep thinking.  Keep imagining.  Keep inventing.  Keep having ideas.


He [John Lennon] once said that it’s an artist’s job to imagine … because that’s where new ideas come from.””

Further signs on the table ask for the return of the pens and there are separate bins underneath for old pens and discarded sticky notes.
