I love this. Fanfic of fanart :)

I loved this too.

The whole KiTR experiment reminds me of some of the most-compelling parts of the LBD transmedia. Not in terms of the specific mode of interaction; it’s obviously different than tweeting back and forth with the LBD characters. But in terms of how it feels, there’s a similar sense of being actively engaged with the ongoing creation of the story.

It’s an opportunity to collaborate with the show’s creators, rather than merely consuming their output. Even just reading along, seeing other fans’ contributions, there’s a wonderful sense of being part of something organic, where something wonderful and unexpected can happen at any moment.

It’s a giant directed improv exercise, where we all get to play along.

I realize that the basic concept isn’t new; people have been doing different versions of this for a while. It’s basically a version of what Welcome to Sanditon tried to do. But this approach, as implemented by this particular team with this particular content in this particular way, is working really well for me.
