Let's say an American film maker, an Egyptian poet, a German philosopher, a Mande jeli, a Chinese monk, and a Bolivian singer were to gather in a room to collaborate on a story. What story form do you think they would use and what might be some of the elements of that story?

some sort of Proppian folk-tale, maybe thusly deconstructed.
and regarding elements, perhaps we should begin with the characters, namely "an American film maker, an Egyptian poet, a German philosopher, a Mande jeli, a Chinese monk, and a Bolivian singer," every one of them beginning in their respective corner of the world, or just one country to the left of that corner.
