In Other Wor(l)ds Workshop: The Stories

Photo by Dušan Dobiáš

Since writing is a linear process that takes time, our co-writing jam session pointed out, among other things, the difficulty of using new media tools made for exactly that purpose (real-time collaborations). So we grabbed a piece of paper, took our dusty pens out of our pockets, and wrote the stories by hand instead.

The basic agreement was that we are going to practice writing science fiction stories that involve three characters - Kim, V, and 0/1 - whose gender and other features are subject to change. The stories take place in Salzburg in the year 2050. Future editing, rearranging, and dismembering of the stories is encouraged! For that purpose, you can use these versions:

Big thanks to Civilmedia organizers for making the workshop possible and, of course, to everyone who left the workshop room chuckling. Grateful grapefruits go out to the transcribers and decoders our charmingly illegible handwritings.

More pictures and reflection on the workshop are going to be published on my blog http://prepih.blogspot.com/ - presumably, before 2050.

Greetings from Whileaway,
Tea.
