The 3 Waves of Applied Improvisation

How is Applied Improvisation developing as a practice, from roots in social work and then theatre, to its many exciting and promising applications in today’s emergent world?

Paul Z Jackson explores these 3 waves and their implications for AI practitioners.

1) Theatre – Learn (and maybe perform) Improv
2) Workshop-based applications – Learning improvisation skills and concepts for life and work
3) A wider range of creative explorations – Exploring + developing improvisation in real-world settings

Along the way, we notice significant shifts in emphasis:
· Beyond theatre - that’s to say improvising as yourself and irrespective of audience
· A switch from teaching by experts to learning from multiple-context experiences
· Refining the words we use to describe our principles and practices
