Arcticacre Dispersed Internet Fiction Project. by Jason Nelson
"a family of five siblings, the arcticacres, and their story as told through their posts across the web"
Briefly to Begin: While most of my work is interactive, animated and self contained, this project is built from the idea that internet based story telling exists most prominently within those user entered data boxes of reviews, forums and all manners of web posted whims and notions. Therefore this project will build rich and complex characters and stories via posts throughout the web. Those posts will not only futher the story/characters, but also comment heavily on the site/topic/social-politics of the site in which the, eventually, thousands of posts are published. The project site will simply contain internet search windows with the name Arcticacre, as well as the names of the five siblings, with other special terms added as the fiction progresses |
>>>>>> | Dispersed Internet Fiction Posts by the oldest of the Arcticacres, Joe, a slightly confused man, never married and prone to finding the mundane fascinating. Examples: |
>>>>>> | Timeline of Project: Month One: Begin posting in user entry forms across the web under the five sibling's Names. Five posts a day. Begin archiving all posts via screen shots and web page grabs. Month Two: Test search engine recognition of the posts, and site's archiving. Reconfigure the characters based on their interaction with other users.
|
>>>>>> | Month Three-Ten: Continue posting and expanding the characters. Killing at least one character. Month Eleven: As my contrubution to the project ends, invite others to continue posting under an extended family version of the articacres. Hopefully eventually this wil be a viral project that extends the Arcticacre clan for years. |
>>>>>> | Project Budget: Fees for joining websites, forums, and other online organizations to facilitate the growth of the characters and their interaction with other users: 450 dollars. Artist Fee: 1000 Dollars Total: 1450 Dollars |
