"SwarmSketch is an ongoing
online canvas that explores the possibilities of distributed design by the
masses. Each week it randomly chooses a popular search term which becomes the
sketch subject for the week. In this way, the collective is sketching what the
collective thought was important each week. A new sketch begins after one week,
or after the previous sketch reaches one thousand lines, whichever comes first. Each user can contribute
a small amount of line per visit, then they are given the opportunity to vote
on the opacity of lines submitted by other users. By voting, users moderate the
input of other users, judging the quality of each line. The darkness of each
line is the average of all its previous votes" (source: swarmsketch.com).
-Daily Monster - Stefan Bucher: http://www.dailymonster.com/ "For 100 days, Stefan Bucher filmed himself drawings monsters
and posted the short clips on his website. He
then asked readers to write the story of the monster. His "open Source
Monsters" also allows people to submit their own drawings based on the
inkblots he provides. The online project lead to a book which had already
gathered a public long before it hit the bookshops" (source: we-make-money-not-art.com).
-Shoutkast - Daniel Maalman en Jaap Mutter: http://vimeo.com/37523117 “Shoutkast is a tribute to the essence of the internet:
a network of machines that allows people to share information.This installation allows visitors to
share their shouts with eachother without the downsides of censorship,
moderation or privacy infringement.
Shoutkast is an interactive installation,
consisting of a row of cupboards made of carton.
The title of the work is a
combination of the english word ‘shout’ and the dutch word ‘kast’, which means
cupboard, or closet. Except for this literal translation, this title also
refers to the phenomenon of ‘shoutcasting’ software which makes it possible to
broadcast audio over the internet.
The complete installation consists of
twenty cupboards of 1m80 high and 35cm wide. Alltogether the installation can
span a width of seven meters. Each cupboard has seven drawers, and all drawers
have a unique and randomly generated IP-address on its front.
The drawers open and close by
themselves continiously in a random order. As soon as a drawer opens, it is up
to the visitor to scream into it, after which the sample will be saved into
that particular drawer. The drawer will close and as soon as it will open
again, the sample that was left into it will be played loudly into the room.
At any time in this process it is
possible to overwrite a previous recorded sample by simply shouting into the
drawer again.
Since a large amount of drawers is
simultaneously open, this can result in a big cacofonic chaos of sounds and
voices” (source: http://vimeo.com/37523117).

We feel fine - Jonathan Harris : http://www.wefeelfine.org/
Since August 2005, We Feel Fine has been harvesting human feelings
from a large number of weblogs. Every few minutes, the system searches
the world's newly posted blog entries for occurrences of the phrases
"I feel" and "I am feeling". When it finds such
a phrase, it records the full sentence, up to the period, and identifies
the "feeling" expressed in that sentence (e.g. sad, happy,
depressed, etc.). Because blogs are structured in largely standard
ways, the age, gender, and geographical location of the author can
often be extracted and saved along with the sentence, as can the
local weather conditions at the time the sentence was written. All
of this information is saved.

The Ten Commandments of Crowdsourcing:
...
Rule No.2: Eliminate
the influence of crazy freaks. You must determine a way to avoid giving
too much power to a small group that can have a powerful influence on your
results.
...
Rule No.6: Set
clear boundaries for participation. Time Magazine decided to let
Internet users vote who gets their annual award. This decision gave the
opportunity to practical jokers to set the winner as Christopher ‘moot’ Poole,
founder of 4Chan, an online community known for it’s pranks.
