Welcome to a revolutionary experiment in media, myth, and meaning!

This web page is host to an interconnected, evolving network of scenes and conversations. In them, fictional characters embodying a wide variety of identities, histories, ideologies, and attitudes trace the struggle and possibility of being alive in our time. Our hope is that these stories will conjure as well as reflect.

Here are some example "tables of contents" -- through strictly this is against the spirit of the thing.

You're invited to help.

If you identify with a perspective carried by one these characters -- or know and respect those who do -- you're invited to edit and refine and delete or add to their words, to help them speak more wisely and well.

You may also add new characters. But please only create someone new if it would be a stretch to integrate into an existing voice. Beware character bloat!

You may add new scenes, of course, as well as revising existing ones. But beware scene bloat!

In new and existing scenes, add tags that make sense and help link related pages together. As the scene-web grows, these will become a primary way to navigate a transect through it.

Remember: currently there's just a single version of the site. Your contributions may be reversed or superseded (though you'll always be able to see old versions of a page's history). Soon, however, the goal is to make branches of the site available -- as many as maintainers are able to keep clean. Then you and your friends can choose your own preferred versions, and link them as you will.

Welcome! To add new pages and edit existing ones, log in as "Anon" with password "anon".

Black screen. A face flickers into focus. Who is it? Is it you? Is it me? Or God? Or the Author? No. The face's mouth smiles, gently, and speaks:

Sometimes, people explore revolutionary organization, together, across difference. What are the pitfalls and possibilities of leadership? What is the scope of revolution: a deep transformation within, or beyond global civilization?

Here, together, some of us are tracing the possibility of emergent living wisdom. We are characters in a novelization of the world. We conspire to make a novel world real. What on earth can that mean? We're learning to find out.

This site is a jumble of intersecting conversations. Here's a list of pages currently on the site.

Overhearings at a sacred song sauna of the full moon.

Tags can help by gathering together similar texts. Another possibility is to follow internal links within each transcription. For a somewhat more technical introduction to both the content and form of this proleptic project, see Collab-wiki. Also see Technically.
