funAbout Creativity Exchange
TheRacket had a brilliant (and fun) idea. He asked me if I would be interesting in a Creativity Exchange (those are my capitalization, hence, I'm naming it. So, there). It's almost like a short game of tag; he will write or I will draw and we would exchange what we created to the other. There are no hard and fast rules; one person creates something and the other collaborates. He could sketch and I could write, I could take a picture and he write a haiku, he could write a ballad and I illustrate a passage... we're making it up as we go along. The best kind of game, really.
Creativity Exchange Timeline
- Monday &/or Tuesday we work on creating something for the other.
- Wednesday we exchange the pieces secretly.
- Thursday we work on our responding pieces.
- Friday we display them.
Layer Cake Exchange Timeline
Similar to the above exchange, this one adds one more step.
- Monday we secretly exchange our first pieces (Part I) so that only the other can see.
- Wednesday we secretly reveal our responses (Part II), which are responding to the other's Part I.
- We each prepare a response that ties in with the respective Part II, trying to forget about our own original piece that inspired it.
- Friday we publicly reveal our responses to Part II thereby creating a Part III.
- The end product is two separate exchanges, using an original work to inspire a response. Then that response inspires a following response. Techinically, this type of creativity exchange could go on for a long time.
