Description:
This workshop is not a technical instruction but a mental one. In our day-to-day work we don't often get the opportunity to step back and reflect on whether what we're working on is really giving us the joy in which we thrive and grow or are we dragging ourselves one deadline to the next.
This workshop is about not worrying about any deadline but doing what makes you creatively flourish and gives you joy; and finding ways of doing it with method, discipline, rigour, and collaboration (with other participants). There is no single medium or platform of choice, bring what you're good at, and be prepared to open up about yourself and your source(s) of joy.
Given the open format of this workshop, the outcomes are unpredictable in medium or format except that they need to be conceived, created, and shared remotely and online. Come prepared to have fun doing what you love over an intense and creative week.
What you can expect to learn: how to nurture what you’re good at and getting out of your own way, how to see your story for yourself and how to share it with the world.

Suryansh Chandra Mind Distillery,Founder/CEOSuryansh is the founder of The Mind Distillery, an organisation that helps people nurture what their minds are uniquely good at and actualise this potential. Suryansh graduated from the AA Design Research Lab in 2009, then worked at the ZHA Code Research Group for 6 years before founding and leading Automata, a company making robotic automation simple and affordable through market leading innovations in robotic arm hardware and software. Through his professional roles Suryansh has worn many hats from artist and designer, programmer, math geek, team & project manager, tutor at the AA, and into his founder career as mechanical engineer, company founder, leader and storyteller building up a company of 50 people with 100s of robots in the field in just 5 short years. In his own personal experience and in his close working relationships with people from very diverse professions, he found a common pattern of highly talented people who often didn't believe in their own potential enough to follow it, and often ended up spending too long in jobs and positions that eventually stifled rather than nurtured their best gifts. This is what lead him to found The Mind Distillery.
