Applied Dadaism: Fun and Games, Friday Morning
Applied Dadaism: Fun and Games was held around the main campfire on Friday morning.
Artie stood poised on a trampoline, completely motionless until it was time to get the workshop started. "Greetings, campers! I hope you are having a very pipe time at camp so far! Welcome to Applied Dadaism! I am Artie! The strongest man . . . in the world and I will be your instructor for these next weeks."
He bounced down from his perch on the trampoline and struck a heroic pose in front of the campers. "You may ask ‘Artie? What is Dada?' And an excellent question that would be! Dada is nonsense! Richard Huelsenbeck once said that ‘everywhere, throughout the world, where forces are at work to turn back the wheel of history, Dada will be hated. Therefore it is not difficult to predict a great future for Dada.' Alas, he may have been wrong. For the forces of emo are strong throughout the world, now more than ever, and now, more than ever, is Dada important!"
He struck a different pose. "In this workshop, we will learn to apply Dada to our everyday lives through games and ridiculousness, to combat these forces of emo. We will make people ask questions. We will make people ask questions about why they are asking questions! We will, most importantly, have fun!"
He began walking back and forth. "At the end of the workshop, you will be asked to present a game of your creation to the group. This game will be based on the ideas and rulelessness you will learn throughout the workshop. But start thinking about it now, so that you will have a great game idea by the end of the session!"
He bounced back up on the trampoline. "But first! Introduce yourselves! Say your name and make a funny pose, a funny noise, a funny face! Then we will move on to our first game!"
Once the introductions are through with, Artie stands, arms in muscle man position, at the front of the group again. "Excellent! Now, we will play ‘rock, paper, scissors!' But be warned, you may not play only rock, paper, or scissors! You may play anything you can think of. For example!" He did jazz hands. "Nuclear fission! Pair up! (and make one group of three!) Play the game! Explain how your thing, such as nuclear fission, beats your partner's thing, such as molten lava! Have fun! I, Artie, the strongest man . . . in the world! will be here to answer any questions!"
