1001 nights cast
http://1001.net.au/index.shtml

this site/piece got my attention for a few different reasons. First off if you visit this site, look at the intro. It gives a short story on how the husband of a woman dies, and so she travels the world looking for a reason to keep living. It continues that everynight a stranger tells her a new story to heal her heart.
This odd little story actually is the basis for how this site is made. Barbara Campbell performs a short text-based work each night for 1001 consecutive nights. The performance is relayed as a live webcast to anyone, anywhere, who is logged on to this website at the appointed time, that is, sunset at the artist’s location.

the site provides a countdown clock as to whan Barbara will wake and give the prompt to create a story for her site. I found this concept to be very creative for a few reasons, but maily because i have never before seen a site that only gives you certain times to write on or for it.
i definitly suggest checking out this site.
