An idea's been wallowing in the back of my brain for awhile now, an idea about a near future earth where music and art has been critiqued out of existance, where no one creates any more. It's about the outcasts who recreate creation, who make music, art, dance, and in so doing, intentionally or not, lure away the children of the masses.

They live, at least at first, in an old, closed-down theatre called The Hamlin.

It came to me all at once at Folklife a few years back, and since then I've done nothing with it. On Tuesday I remembered it, and I remembered it at the same time as I remembered that Erik and I had talked about doing some kind of worldbuilding project together (Calenthe is far too much mine for me to ever share). I haven't worked with Hamlin enough to really feel posessive, and it's really about everyone being capable of some kind of creation - I picture it as being open to all sorts of music/art/novel/comic contributions once the stage is set - so it seemed pretty perfect for a joint venture.

He liked it too! In half an hour on the phone we came up with different ideas about the world, three or four character concepts, internal and external conflicts -- now, why I am I sitting here at work when I could be creating?
