Listen "Elemental / Episode One / A Creative Meditation"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome to the Third Place Sonic Experience Podcast...
My name is Ellie and I am going to be your podcast builder and designer and journey-taker for the next chunk of time. This is your first installment and this is just me saying "hello" and "welcome" and that this podcast is created for you. Of course, I don't know you yet, so this first episode is just a little creative taster, to give you a little break from your work. You can find me on the Discord @Welliestbrook so please do get in touch and we can build this thing together because I want to fill it with your YOU-ness and everything that you wanna do and are interested in. Anything that you share with me I can integrate anonymously or with your name attached to it or whatever. But we'll evolve it as we go.
So this is just a little audio meditation to start.
It's lovely to meet your ears!
Hi, and welcome to your audio journey with me. I'm going to take you on a guided audio meditation, exploring your creativity. So please take a pen, take some paper and go and find a place to sit, a little chair, maybe on the floor. Just make sure that you can lean on the paper to write on it. Maybe you need a little book with you. Keep me in your headphones for all the time we're together. So I'll just let you get there.
Now, you're comfortable with your pen, your pencil, paper and somewhere to rest, I just want you to sit there, or lie there, pen and paper down, and breathe in and breathe out and relax. Breathe in, breathe out and relax.
And slowly, comfortably, take your pen, your pencil and your paper. Now just write the first word that comes to your head and now take it on a journey.
And write the next word that comes to your head and the next word and take it to a journey. And the next one. And the final word. Now look at your words and I will support you as you connect your words. Maybe it's a little poem. Maybe it's a little saying. Maybe it's a little story. Could be stupid, could be profound, wherever you're at.
Once your words are connected, put a little full stop at the end if that suits your style of writing, and then take your creative meditation back with you to your computer as you carry on your work. Maybe you want to write it up, maybe you want to record a voice note of it. Maybe you just want to have it sitting beside you, but enjoy your little creative exploration.
If you liked what you did, or if you don't (!), send it to me and I can use it for the next journey. It can remain anonymous or you can put your name to it. Have a lovely day.
Hi there it's me again on a slightly more casual mic, and I just wanted to close off the episode and say thank you for listening. I look forward to hearing from at least one of you with a little response and then we can crack on with the next episode.
If you have any thoughts about things you'd be interested to do or hear, please ping them across to me on the Discord, as mentioned.
The other thing I want to do is to create a theme tune for our podcast. If anyone has, out there, a beat. Like a drumbeat... maybe they're just hitting the wall with a spoon or banging some sort of rhythm out that could potentially be the origins of our theme tune... please send it over. Just a beat, nothing else. No tune, no harmony. And then we can see what it might begin to inspire.
Have a lovely fortnight, and you'll be hearing from me again, soon,
