Fiction, etc.

Jason -

Using narrative fiction would be a great way to get a multiple perspective view on the creek. My idea was to take not a history of the creek, but a day in the life of the creek. Perhaps someone does something upstream at the beginning of the creek, and then we see the results on down the river. A poet could be writing next to the river, some corporation could be dumping sludge, a fisherman could be fishing...etc. and all their lives converge at one point by their connection to the creek.

How do all these perspectives merge? This would inevitably require researching the history, environmental background, arts involvement, etc. of the creek.

Are our research groups supposed to be contained within our own classes? ;)
