Stage 01 of 9

What tugs at you right now?
Every project starts with a snag — an image that won't leave, a phrase, a memory, a material you keep touching. Don't try to justify it yet. Catch it.
Prompts to sit with
- 01What have you photographed, saved, or re-read three times this month?
- 02What conversation, place, or object made you feel something you can't name?
- 03What are you avoiding making — and why?
- 04If nothing came up, roll a constraint (see Part 9) and let it choose for you.
Small practices
- Keep a physical notebook this week — no judgment, only collecting.
- Photograph 50 things at random and look for what recurs.
- Draw 100 quick studies of anything to loosen the hand.
