Workroom Playtime 043: Building Short Exercises

This week's Workroom PlayTime is Thursday 18 December at 3:00pm London time.

I've spent a year on short exercises – converting some from my existing materials, building some, delivering regularly.

It's time for a short exercise about short exercises. Let's not spend time on why they're useful, or what I've learned, or on a handful of polished principles. Let's learn by scribbling down new exercises and sharing. Maybe you're an old hand. Maybe not. Come to this and build your hundredth exercise, or your first. We'll share and take away new perspectives.

We'll gather on Zoom. These exercises are for everyone, for free. Subscribers get to play together every week. If you can see a joining info section below, then that gives you access to the Zoom etc. for the workshop. If you'd like to bring a friend, you can do that. I'll say yes until I've got too many.

Here's a rough plan of what's coming up:

• No sessions on 25th December, or 1 January (you might have something planned, yourself).
• In 2026, we'll do more puzzles, more stuff for speakers, more thinking... and maybe fewer tools.
• I'll re-run some exercises, and experiment more with timings and lengths, regularity and uncertainty.

By the time we restart, in early January, we can mark a year of Workroom PlayTime – thank you for coming on this journey.
