The first AINxWatch party for 2025 will be a collaboration event between Applied Improv Network, Global Play Brigade, and the Improvscience’s Freedom Festival. 

Join us to watch We will watch a recording of “Embracing The Unknown: it’s what we’ve got,” a recording from the which was part of the Global Play Brigade Playshops on Playtelligence – March 2025.  In this workshop, we explored how in a world of constant change, relying on old knowledge isn’t enough. What we need is improvisation, curiosity, and a willingness to explore unknownability. Educators, students, and change-makers came together to play, perform and rethink learning, and grow together.

To broaden our concept of unknowability, here is a quote from Lois Holzmans’ American Psychological Association blog post, Embrace the Unknowable, No Matter How Grim.  She shared, “Holding fast to the belief that the happenings of our lives are knowable can get us into deep trouble…Ironically, the belief that knowing what will happen prepares us for it actually leaves us less prepared for it…Accepting—better yet, embracing—unknowability helps us be more, not less, prepared. More prepared to participate in what’s transpiring and give some direction to it. More prepared to create with others what will emerge from the process. More prepared to improvise. More prepared to grow. Embracing unknowability is a way to live a ‘yes, and…’ life. ”

Everyone is welcome to join in! Join us! Let’s step boldly into the unknown—because that’s where possibility lives!
