Kieran that sounds great. It reminds me of a play I saw once called "House". Performed in a house, a play about housemates, one act repeated twice, but viewed in different rooms (kitchen, loungeroom or bedroom - you choose) The other thing that strikes me, these are the things we do on our own accord, because we enjoy doing it. We learn, we stretch our imaginations, we interact. If only my shool had incorporated this form of social collaboration into our learning! :) Shai check out what Kelly is doing – looks really good.

(In Playback Theater, someone from the audience comes up and tells a story, and the troupe improv/reenacts the story.) Sometimes it was funny, sometimes it was very powerful therapy. Often we'd reenact a story, mix up the players, reenact the story again, mix up the players, reenact the story again ... etc. Was always interesting to see the storytellers reaction in cases where we got it "right" every time, even though each retelling was completely different.

'been meaning to try collaborative artmaking online. Maybe one of these days! :-) I've always loved how projects and ideas unfold when 2 or more people are involved.

And I noticed later that a few people were using <a href="http://futureexploration.net/e2ef/blog/2008/02/lets_participate_live.html" rel="nofollow">Tangler </a>to share notes!

I think as you get older you forget how to bend the structure of everyday life to innovate in the ways that kids do naturally. Maybe passing notes in class was the original version of twitter? And remember when your actual yearbook was 'the facebook' wall? Yes, social media is not new.
