Kommuneity - we've had workshops, and we've had story slams. Our workshops have you walking in with words and walking out with stories - stories you never knew existed, stories you never thought were worth sharing. Our story slams are what unique Sundays are made of, complete with tellers breaking down their walls and finding support in strangers who look a lot less strange by the end of the evening. Both events however, define the Kommuneity for us. So we decided to combine the two to give you a weekend with all things Kommune, a weekend you'll want to repeat again and again. Welcome to our first ever events in Pune, and the sixth edition of our the newly launched Kommuneity Weekend, where we marry the beauty of learning with the promise of growing.
So Bangalore, we come to you with a Saturday of learning in the workshop, followed by a Sunday of using everything you've learned in the story slam. The theme for this story slam is 'Online'.We are the internet generation, one that teaches our grandparents how to send WhatsApp forwards and secretly blocks our relatives on Facebook. With Kindles and Netflix, right swiping our way to love and friendship. We live online, unashamedly so. Because really, is there anything to be ashamed of? So many stories and memories are made online, with the chat box shyly peeking through our screens. The people you message online are sometimes just as important as the people you laugh with over coffee. So Bangalore, give us a sneak peek into your phone screens, those all important black mirrors and tell us what you see.
Participants will receive complimentary writing material. After all, what's a writer without a book? So join Kommune as we create, captivate, and collaborate at this Kommuneity weekend!
- Learn how to string the beginning, the middle and the end together to make a kickass story.
- Skip the submission and feedback process and learn directly from some of the most loved storytellers and creators.
- Have an intimate session of learning, sharing, and creating.
- Walk in prepared for our story slams, where we often find amazing performers, stories, and storytellers.
- Begin the journey of self-editing and curating - become your own most reliable critic.
- More importantly however, it's a chance to become a better storyteller, perform in front of a supportive crowd and take part in a completely democratic competition (the audience votes to pick the winner).
- Some of the best poets and storytellers have been slam winners – this includes names like Mohammed Sadriwala and Gaurav Tripathi.
To participate, please read the rules carefully:
- The theme for this session is 'Online.' All stories must reflect the theme.
- Only original and personal stories (from your own life) are allowed. Fictional stories and poetry are not allowed for the Story Slam. Kommune does not encourage reading out your story/using books/paper/phones for reference.
- The time limit is 5 minutes per story.
- To send submissions, attach a screenshot of your Insider ticket and send Kommune the title and the description of your story in two lines to team@kommuneity.co.in with the subject line "Kommuneity Weekend (Bangalore): Online"
- Submitted stories will make it to the Kommune Slam Jar and by random selection, tellers will be picked to perform. Best stories of the day get a lot of love and amazing prizes!
