#sharedworld — Public Fediverse posts

Zuletzt beendetes Buch: "Tales from the Vulgar Unicorn" - #ThievesWorld 2 edited by #RobertAsprin and #LynnAbbey - ich habe plötzlich das Verlangen verspürt, die #Diebeswelt als erfolgreiches #SharedWorld #Worldbuilding wieder zu besuchen und bin bereits mit Band2 durch. Wie ein Autor gesagt hat: "die erste Story schreibst du um dabei zu sein, die zweite aus Rache". Ob es unter den vielen die hier nicht nur #Lesen sondern #Schreiben Leute gibt, die sich solche Stories für #ProjektMyra zutrauen?

Athema war eine literarische Shared World. Das Athema-Fanzine erschien als Beilage zu verschiedenen Rollenspiel-Fanzines (Magier-Nachrichten, Dwarfs & Giants, TMM, Warrior's Prayer, 252-News). Ziel war es, mit verschiedenen AutorInnen durch Kurzgeschichten eine Welt aufzubauen. Das Projekt wurde offenbar von den Magier-Nachrichten initiiert, Herausgeber war Martin Kliehm. Ich habe keine Ahnung, wieviele Ausgaben erschienen sind. (Damals war ich ein kleiner Pöps, überhaupt nicht im Fandom aktiv, und fing gerade erst an, Abenteuer-Spielbücher für mich zu entdecken. :-D)

Von den Magier-Nachrichten und Warrior's Prayer (nicht Warrior Express!) hab ich noch keine Ausgabe in die Finger bekommen, bei TMM weiß ich noch nichtmal, ob es eine Abkürzung ist und ob es sich um ein Rollenspiel-Zine handelt. In de 252-News Nr. 2 habe ich eben eine Sonderausgabe von Athema entdeckt, die eine Auswahl aus den ersten beiden Nummern enthält (Geschichten von Matthias Deigner und Christel Scheja); gelesen habe ich sie noch nicht. Die Geschichten sind zwar in sehr kleiner Schrift, aber trotzdem kurz und stark charakterzentriert. Anhand der beiden Geschichten in Athema Nr. 3 finde ich es schwierig, mir vorzustellen, wie der kollaborative Weltenbau funktionieren sollte. Vielleicht gab es unausgesprochene Regeln und Erwartungen? In Grimoire 5 stand ein Artikel zu Shared Worlds, in dem Christel Scheja über die von ihre gestartete Welt Talastan und noch ein anderes Projekt berichtet. Begrenzte Außenseiter-Perspektiven habe ich außerdem auf Magira bzw. die Alte Welt von Follow, und ich weiß, dass das Myra @[email protected] ein großes Shared World-Projekt aus/seit den 1980ern ist. Ist das Zufall, oder war das in den 1970ern und 1980ern verbreiteter als heute? #fanzine #zine #pnpde #SharedWorld

The ending of the #Kdrama spin-off of the Japanese anime/manga/ #Jdrama, #Parasyte, was not surprising. They dropped all the hints in S01E01, so watch it carefully.

8 stars!

Q: But how about continuity? And which one is “canon”?

A: Whichever the readers want it to be.

Most readers who are concerned about continuity and canonicity would automatically consider the work of the original author as the “Prime Reality”. Everything else are in “Other Realities”, or a branch of the timeline, or a parallel world.

The beauty of this is that, for literary works where canonicity and continuity is important, the original author can choose to declare this and that work are canon and/or part of the continuity. Those who did not read those works initially, will start to read them.

It creates an ecosystem where authors of a #SharedWorld can help each other.

In any case, an #author who dedicates their work in the Public Domain; or use an Attribution and/or ShareAlike license, more likely than not already understands how canonicity and continuity plays a role for their own work. These authors would have set their own guidelines already.

Example #1. Author A prefers to have complete control over the “Prime Reality”. That works fine.

Most readers prefer this, since this is what we're used to. At the same time, it doesn't invalidate derivative works; AND Author A can also reuse those derivative works.

(In fanfiction, most authors avoid reading them to avoid any possible issues; like fanfiction writers claiming the author stole their part of the story that was not part of the original source material.)

Example #2. Author B on the other hand declared that there is no “Prime Reality”. It is up to the readers to decide which particular path of the shared-world they prefer. It could be the primary author's (Author B), or it could be Author C, Author D, and so on.

Literally, there is no fan fiction in this setup. What would have been fanfiction are simply different realities (timeline/worlds/paths).

@jake4480 Watched it a week or two ago, first time LOL, because of Monarch.

I don't mind if it's US or Japan since it's a #sharedworld with continuity. I like those type of stories even before Marvel made it popular.

@neurojojo

I have the same reaction to research papers and other information published behind pay walls. Frequently, I want to read something and there it is, with a price tag.

Anyone know of any open source art "worlds" where everyone shares the #lore and #artwork of everyone else and all contribute to a common open #world ? it seems like I ran into something like this years ago where you could contribute characters, stories, art, music, etc. all in a common world but the content was open for everyone to use.
