Here's what she's got i n store for us... \;\n \;\nFun and games with a purpose \;\n&# 13\;\nThe damp chill of winter may be upon us\, but why hibernate in a c ave when you can come out for a night of impromptu creativity games? Bro ught to you by Patricia Colley\, problem-solver\, disruptive collaborato r\, game-master and improviser extraordinaire! \;\n \;\nUX types are very clever\, and we're great at thinking problems through\, but som etimes our intellect hits a wall\, and we need a creative jolt. To make imaginative leaps\, we have to calm the inner critic\, focus on the mome nt\, and step intuitively into the unknown. Getting your whole brain and body engaged in the here &\; now of creative flow - that's where the magic happens. \;\n \;\nHow do we do that? Let's find out togeth er! \;\n \;\nWe'll do some group exercises to shake out the cobwe bs and get your juices going. We'll be up on our feet and doing stuff ab out half the time\, talking and moving and maybe a little drawing\, too. We'll tell stories and reflect in between. We'll share ideas on how to keep creativity going in practice\, when time is short\, inspiration is low\, and pressure is high. We may even learn a little something about c ollaboration along the way. \;\n \;\nYou'll come out of it re-e nergized\, or your money back! \;\n\n\nTags: ixda\, PDXIXDA\n\nImpo rted from: http://calagator.org/events/1250463106 SUMMARY:PDX IxDA meetup - Creativity Games LOCATION:Connective DX Community Room: 2030 NW Pettygrove St\, Portland O R 97209 US SEQUENCE:2 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT CREATED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170305T072418Z DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170322T203000 DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170322T180000 DTSTAMP;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170305T072418Z LAST-MODIFIED;VALUE=DATE-TIME:20170305T072418Z UID:http://calagator.org/events/1250471551 DESCRIPTION:IxDA Portland is proud to host Mike Monteiro\, in town to fun draise &\; rouse the weary with his latest call to arms: How To Fight Fascism.

The world is a mess because a certain set of people designed it to be a mess. Now we need a different set of people to design our way out of it. This is not a choice. Regardless of whether this is what we wanted or not fascism i s knocking on our front door. This is how we knock back. \;\nThis eve nt is doubling as a fundraiser for The Trevor Project\, Planned Parentho od\, and ACLU of Oregon\, with IxDA getting the refreshments\, so...
