Establish a common archive into which people can deposit
footage of their local settlement with no people visible.
Given enough distinct contributions, anyone in the world

later. Or throw in some stock footage of people standing
around looking pensive, add a narrator overlay, and you can
have anything from a murder mystery to a historical
documentary. |
