I want to mix poems from text, audio performance, visual overlays. The composition tools want to be easy at hand, the results want to use networks. I want to collaborate with my friends/peers. I want to allow variations and mods as easily as weblogs, but I really like <b>layers</b> more than links. Things that show through each other. flash and actionscript provide the closest actual behavior, but don't provide the organization and control/generation of variations.<a href="http://www.flashgap.com/">jgenerator</a> by Dimitry Skavish puts flash into an open source server. <a href="http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/">Cocoon</a> lets you set up pipelines of transformations. As they now exist they are distinct from weblog sharing. Got to change that. <hr/>
