Online Group Painting Project

Set up a website where someone can draw in a photoshop-like environment. And everyone can draw over and or erase upto 20% of the picture all at the same time in real time, with no Undo feature. People express their opinions, thoughts, visions and make jokes, destroy and etc. All the steps are recorded. At the end of art project, a movie is made of all the steps, and we see how it reaches from blank page to final work.

Ever since we were kids, my cousin and I like to start a drawing of our own, then after a few minutes swap them, so I continue his picture and he carries on with mine. Strange, yet beautiful, pictures come out of such experiment. It would be nicer if more people joined in [+]

+ This would definitely loosen you up, and encourage faster drawing.

this process is called 'remix'. i participated in my first one in 2001, and the accompanying book is available on amazon published by die gestalten. remix projects are now everywhere.

i saw a cool one in melbourne at misty bar a few years back, where a photoshop screen was projected onto a wall, and each person had 60 seconds to do their thing via mouse.

An interesting experiement. Would the result become lukewarm groupthink or high-quality art?

I would call this a virtual graffiti wall.
