Thanks to all of you for your willingness to join this project.
After reading Atmosphæra Incognita my mind was filled with questions about the world around Stephenson’s creation. What’s happening on the other levels of the tower? What social structures developed on the various levels? What is life like for those who live in the literal shadow of the tower? What’s happening in different countries that is a result of the tower?
There are of course many possibilities here and with your backgrounds in storytelling and gaming, I hoped that we might all collaborate to fill in some of the details of this ambitious idea. Not only will this be an interesting exercise in its own right, but we might even use these ideas as prompts for future education and outreach efforts around the mission of Project Hieroglyph.
Feel free to organize as you see fit. Perhaps a different threads related to infrastructure, religions, agriculture, etc.
I look forward to this experiment in collaboration!
