Chain Reaction

As a starting point, an idea has already been put forward by Caroline Carty that takes the form of a chainlike call and response. A musician would begin by writing a song/making a piece of music and then an artist would respond in whatever medium they like. They would then pass this piece on to a musician who would write a song/piece of music and so on. Alternatively this could all start with an artist making a pice of work. I am interested in how far removed (or not) the works could get from the source material and whether the thread will be clear.
