Holding Patterns: Sharing about the “less productive” time
For many musicians, restrictions on live performance caused by COVID created a period of exploration and shifts that looked very different from the usual rhythm of concerts, albums, and otherwise. These “holding patterns” (sometimes) kept us sane, motivated, and moving forward in a really static time. In this activity, folks will have a space to share (anonymously or not) their own “holding patterns” and reflect on how they might inform or change their future practice or perspective.
