On the 12th and 17th June 2013, collective writing experiments were undertaken with teachers and adult students at the British Council in Somosaguas, Madrid. The purpose of these tests was to evaluate the new visualisation controls developed by Guillermo Casado, in collaboration with Kevin McCourt, and gain further feedback on the usability and reliability of the collective writing interface. These tests proved very successful. The feedback has allowed us to make a few final adjustments and move forward to the exhibition stage.
Our immediate plan is to now work with groups of writers within and across different parts of the Spanish-speaking and English-speaking world. We hope to project these collective works in public space as they crystallise in real-time and then publish final outcomes as literary works.
