How much do you think someone should contribute in order to be recognised in a collaborative project? How much control do you think someone should have when they create collectively with others? How do we balance our own individual interests when working collaboratively?
Explore the fun in collective storytelling with ORAgen Fables, a research study and interactive by the Decentralised Digital Economy (DECaDE), University of Edinburgh that invites you to create stories together.
Start your own story by responding to the central image, or build upon others work by responding to prompts. You decide where the story goes and what might happen next. By adding to ORAgen Fables, your ideas might be used to create a new story produced by the 'narrator'. However, you decide which ideas make it into the finalised story, and how the narrator can reuse your own contributions.
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
