I started some collaborative art experiments (initially on Diaspora*) that may interest some of you. The first one is called Col Lab Zero, short for color laboratory CC0/[0]. Within a few days of its initialization, a total of four people had contributed to what I then called The Artsonist. Following this humble success I opened another lab that focuses on pixel-art; The Pixel Lab. It has two contributors so far and can best be viewed here. The is also a Pixel Lab thread on Open Game Art.
Both labs are hosted on Wikimedia Commons and carry a CC0 license. As such their entire history can be reviewed and each version may be used for any purpose. I am considering adding vector and 3D labs as well. I imagine these could possibly have some nested structure.
I would hereby like to invite everyone to join in the progression of these digital collaborative art pieces: Download the latest (subjectively acceptable) version, make any* modifications you like and overwrite the image by uploading a new version.
