Let’s think about starting this thing… we got 6 writers. That leads us to 18 pages, more or less. Perfect for a pilot episode!

I had this visual concept for a show about solitude, virtual human links and the power of décentralisation, influenced by Silicon Valley probably in the humorous tone.

The visual concept was that the main character would connect to different online communities throughout the show, this would change the look of his flat, and the people he would communicate with would be visually transported into his living room (even though he’s just on his device).

An argument on Twitter would result in the walls turning twitter blue, and people fighting in his living room, for example.

The core narrative concept was to explore solitude, human connections, corruption and décentralisation.

We could write a pilot mainly designed to introduce the main character, its lonely outside world, his narrow online world and introduce an element that would cause the character to begin its descent into the rabbit hole.

Once that done we could collaborate on fleshing out a season structure, and setup a virtual writing room to collaborate.

not necessarily. but in this case: fuck yeah.

2 out of 6! let’s wait for the others… We could find a time slot to setup a nest for a chat before starting to write.

great idea, agreed 🤝

We still need a thumb up from #[3]​ and #[5]

Sounds fucking awesome but imma have to sit this one out dudes. Plate is pretty full between fiat mines and family atm.

Noted! There will be more…

I'm in but I'm not sure how this concept fits with the ideas that had been presented.

We’re not forced to use the concept, we’re not forced to use the ideas.

It was a 20min a piece concept I had flying around. We can very well stick to the ideas and see where it leads.

In the end whoever gets the first 3 pages gets to decide where we head, but we working tighter format, mainly writing a 20 pages hook.

And since we’re only 5 writers I suggest we write 4 pages each, 2x2. Two rounds of 10 pages

yeah, agreed, I regreted mine like five minutes later.

We have a first writer… not tagging to leave some suspense.

Will write a proper note tomorrow, but mystery writer gets to write the first 2 pages and decide the direction we take (as well as picking 2nd writer)

Forgot to post the video, didn’t I…
