Collective Creativity through a Micro-Tasks Crowdsourcing Approach

Research and commerce activity has been expanding the potential of micro-task markets. Initially used for simple, disconnected tasks, they have now been able to achieve impressive results in creative domains such as writing and design. The goals for this research are to further explore the possibilities of micro-task markets for performing creative work by defining a set of tasks and processes for such a synergistic creative collaboration, as well as expanding this micro-task approach beyond traditional markets such as Mechanical Turk to skilled and motivated communities.
