Selecta Practise #1: Creativity As A Way of Being

Somewhere between the idea and the finished work, something happens. That space — uncertain, alive, often unexplored — is one most creatives navigate alone. Selecta Practice is a shared thinking space for creatives. A place to reflect, share, and reconnect with your creative process. We move away from output and performance, and focus instead on process, attention and exchange. This is the first in a three-part series: each evening centred on a different book, a different lens on the creative life. For this first gathering, Rick Rubin's The Creative Act is our guide. Over the course of an evening, we'll move through a set of themes and questions drawn from the book. Not as a lecture, but as a conversation. A space to sit with the things that drive you, block you, and keep pulling you back to the work. You don't need to have read the book. You don't need to have your practice figured out.  This is not a networking event. There are no pitches, no portfolios, no pressure to perform. Just an honest, open exchange between people who are in their creative process, no matter where in the process.  Selecta is a creative hub for music and art. A space to share, learn and create. We create spaces we once needed and open them up to anyone who needs them too. Free from commercial pressure and gatekeeping.    NL/ Selecta Practice #01 is de eerste van een driedelige reeks begeleide reflectie-avonden voor creatievelingen, waarbij boeken rond creativiteit als vertrekpunt dienen voor een eerlijk gesprek over het creatieve proces. FR/ Selecta Practice #01 est le premier d'une série de trois soirées de réflexion guidée pour les créatifs, utilisant des livres sur la créativité comme point de départ pour une conversation honnête sur le processus créatif.
