Apophenia is: “the tendency to mistakenly perceive connections and meaning between unrelated things.” In this writing workshop, we will utilize this psychological phenomenon to explore its impact on a writer’s approach to crafting images. Through generating imaginative association exercises, we will sharpen your ability to engage in “re-vision”.
