Exquisite Corpse Programming-SO HOT RIGHT NOW!.

The game "Exquisite Corpse" works by each player first dividing a piece of plain paper into three (or more) sections, each player then draws (usually a head) in the top section, hiding what is being created.

He/she then folds the top section over in such a way that the image cannot be seen by the other players. Once all the players have completed this process, the sheets of paper are passed around.

The system is repeated for the middle section and then the bottom, at which point the drawings are passed on for the last time and opened up to reveal the finished entity.

The Exquisite Corpse game, develops new aesthetics from multiple 'draftsmen' and engages in a social creativity that removes 'ownership' or includes multiple 'authors' of the 'art work'.

A variant on the Exquisite Corpse Game is know as "Consequences".

This involves a story telling device using the writen word and includes multiple authors.
