To those not in the know its a piece of art that is created piece by piece by several artists. It can be a film, a picture, piece of writing, etc.
The basic idea is people looking a set structure e.g. A film about a guy cross the road has 3 parts. One looking left and right. the crossing and the conclusion. 3 people would film each part in whatever style they wished but once put together it comes together as a single film.
But because this is a forum with I see alot of crossover. So instead I will pick each suitable piece to be part of the gestalt.
So let's try a simple romantic tragedy. I'll even make it super easy by having you guys simply pick the parts you want from a list of events.
1. The location and characters
2. the meeting
3. the climax
3. the tragic conclusion where one of them must die.
So you are all writing with a handicap here. You need to write in an open interpretive (vague) way as to not step on other people's established plot points. E.g. you can't mention race, or gender or physical appearance or outward personality.
Think of it this way. Its a story written like you are an uninformed possibly unreliable narrator (you give information that isn't fact but a guess from the narrators point of view). And yes I know what I'm asking goes against every fan fic writers bad habits. Thats the point. Its a challenge.
