assignment structures

Folks,

With the desire to facilitate the beginnings of our discussion about wiki space and "Midwestern Water Wars", I have concatenated various emails onto the old class blog, Storypool (blogger sucks, btw!).

You all still have posting permissions, though Pete will need to respond to an invitation if he wishes to post. It is fine to still post to email, but if the information is useful for our archive, I will also place it on the blog.

ps... Trent and Craig, I do like the idea of Constraints, or using what we did in the seminar, with directed and customized "assignments". This could be an option: that anyone of the group generates an assignment to a writer. For instance, I could email Craig and suggest: "build the research archeology of the Muratorian Fragments", while Craig might suggest to Trent: "The Covert Lexical Movement was comprised of various guerilla cells devoted to undermining language. Find and report information about one of those cells..."

These assignments would of course grow additively, new formulations suggested by each contribution.
