David,
EXCELLENT! Email me privately (or through the list?!?!) with suggested
themes and I will work out some content.
My understanding so far:
Themes such as...
Christianity
Extropianism
Eco-terrorism
CoV
Interactive "selections" for personalizing the meme (electronic greeting
card?) falling into categories similar to:
bait
hook
threat
With these suggestions in mind, I might create content similar to:
Theme/"bait": Freedom (chaos). Motif/"hook": Paganism, Armageddon,
Naturalism, Science, relativism, war, CoV. Content areas/"threat": mixing,
matching, creation, destruction, combination, separation, chance, order.
Example: An electronic card with a "CoV" motif (hook) promising "freedom"
(bait) through "order" (a *threat* to freedom). The respondent chooses who
they want to be (virus or meme), an outcome (win or loose), a strategy
(fight or run). The card randomly chooses "true" or "false" (agree or
disagree--order from chance.)*.
The output: True, you are a __Virus__. You __destroy__ CoV. CoV__wins__.
You have gained your freedom at a cost (the "cryptic" tagline to all
selections). Or, "False. You are a meme. You save CoV. CoV looses. You
have gained your freedom at a cost."
I have content suitable for 13 basic theme groupings. I will propose 3
categories for each theme with 2 choices for every category. I will provide
one cryptic tagline for each theme. A total of 78 memes are possible (But
only 13 graphics are necessary).
We will need someone to find or create graphics for each theme (or we can
display the "card" in fancy text format similar to a plaque without
graphic...or with only a CoV "standard" graphic)?!?
Proceed?
Brett
*This for a more "serious" (though interactively uncertain) outcome...a
"gamboling" or fun twist. Alternatively, all themes and choices can be
mixed for a less serious outcome such as "You are (1)a dog in a
(theme)circus. (2)You fight. (3)The Buddhist religion is proven superior:
(tag)They have created a doll to honor you.
Questions:
Serious or funny?
Graphics or Text?
Greeting card format or other output ("Your Fortune"...insult
generator..."random" thought for the day...you write the story...)?
Themes?
Others comments?
