Improvised Action Collective (impAct Collective) was a South Florida-based anarchist collective. ImpAct has been involved with a variety of projects in the South Florida community since late 2005.
While many of the projects created by the collective are still active, Improvised Action ceased operations in early 2008 after a falling out of the founding membership of the collective.
Famous quotes containing the words improvised and/or action:
“If melodrama is the quintessence of drama, farce is the quintessence of theatre. Melodrama is written. A moving image of the world is provided by a writer. Farce is acted. The writer’s contribution seems not only absorbed but translated.... One cannot imagine melodrama being improvised. The improvised drama was pre-eminently farce.”
—Eric Bentley (b. 1916)
“For the child whose impulsiveness is indulged, who retains his primitive-discharge mechanisms, is not only an ill-behaved child but a child whose intellectual development is slowed down. No matter how well he is endowed intellectually, if direct action and immediate gratification are the guiding principles of his behavior, there will be less incentive to develop the higher mental processes, to reason, to employ the imagination creatively. . . .”
—Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)
