Fans of science fiction are no strangers to new worlds and futuristic ideas, but what if they could help shape these universes themselves? That's exactly what David S. Goyer, known for blockbusters like "Blade" and "The Dark Knight" trilogy, is set to explore with his new sci-fi franchise, "Emergence. " This project isn't just a story—it's an interactive adventure that invites fans to be co-creators.
Goyer has teamed up with Incention, a fresh entertainment platform powered by Story's IP blockchain. This platform allows fans to contribute elements like characters and plot twists, which can be tokenized and owned as digital assets. It's a revolutionary approach that not only gives fans a voice but also protects the intellectual property.
The story of "Emergence" revolves around a mysterious white hole known as the "White Fountain, " which shoots out countless powerful relics across the galaxy. Goyer has crafted a rich universe with intricate details, leaving plenty of room for fans to contribute. There are already fully fleshed-out characters like Captain Skadi and Darius, the galaxy-traveling service worker.
But here's where it gets exciting: Goyer has created a "World Bible" that outlines the themes, characters, and plotlines of the story. Fans can dive into this guide and start contributing their ideas. Once an idea gets enough votes, it becomes part of the official canon, and fans who contributed are rewarded with ownership. This means they have a stake in the story's success.
To ensure ideas stay on track, Incention has developed an AI agent named Atlas. Atlas can generate ideas, answer questions about the universe, and even create images and videos. It’s like a helpful guide ensuring the story stays true to its vision.
In the future, fans might even get to vote on major story turns, like the fate of characters or the introduction of new ones. There will be leaderboards to track points, and the platform encourages collaboration.
While this all sounds thrilling, it's still early days for this kind of fan interaction. Many creators like to keep tight control over their intellectual property and can be wary of new technologies. Goyer believes that Incention can lower the barrier for new creators to gain recognition and make some money. Hopefully, his track record will spark enough interest to make this a reality.
