Bring a room together.
A host opens a room on a laptop or big screen. Guests join with the room’s link, QR code, or six-character code. You can take part in the browser; a phone app isn’t required.
Hosting currently needs a backstage pass. The host chooses a prepared episode or, where generation is available, introduces three fresh ideas. Prepared material is useful for a first run through the format.
Name something that should exist.
Start with something you want to make, then find a first version to try. “Let’s build a tool-sharing network for our neighborhood.” “Let’s make a shared space for our choir’s rehearsal notes.”
Tell us who it is for, what they need, and what a helpful first version would do. No pitch deck. No technical vocabulary required. Use invented examples instead of private information about real people.
Give the idea a chorus.
The ideas become songs, using prepared recordings or the platform’s AI-assisted production tools. The lyrics make the idea memorable; the chorus describes promises the build can try to fulfill.
You don’t need to be a singer to bring an idea. In the current web experience, the platform provides the music. Live performers and locally produced editions are part of the broader format vision.
Choose what the room builds.
Each voter gets ten vibes to allocate across the ideas. Back a favorite, spread your support, and change your allocation until the window closes. The host then reveals the outcome.
Vibes are participation units. They are not money, cryptocurrency, shares, or a claim on a future product. You cannot buy additional voting power in the current experience. The episode’s displayed rules and result explain that room’s selection; experimental format ideas are not a promise that every room uses the same weighting.
Watch a first version take shape.
In a live-build room, AI works on the selected idea while the room follows its progress. People can help refine the idea through the participation tools available in that episode.
A prepared room can instead replay a recorded build. The example show also uses a simulated audience. Those modes are labeled: a recording can demonstrate the process, but it is not a build happening now.
Builds can fail, take longer than expected, or achieve only part of the idea. A working first version still needs testing and care before it becomes something people depend on.
Try it. Learn. Keep going.
When a build is available, open it on your phone and see what it actually does. Published apps can remain in the gallery after the room ends. Where offered, source downloads let you inspect the work.
Look at the permissions and license attached to each artifact before redistributing it. The long-term vision is a commons that communities can adapt and improve; not every preview feature or artifact has reached that destination.
The best ending is a new beginning: a better question, another idea, and someone who feels ready to make the next thing.
