This document outlines an activity called Storysprint which brings together storytellers, transmedia producers, and story architects to collaboratively develop stories across multiple platforms under time pressure. The goal is to generate 100 story wishes in 3 minutes by thinking quickly but also deeply about each idea. Participants take on roles focusing on deep knowledge, spontaneous creativity, or building connections between ideas. The process aims to simulate real-world conditions and collective intelligence to create adventures through transmedia storytelling.
