[CW] Write a short story or a few paragraphs in the style of Ready Player One, only with implicit high art references instead of explicit pop culture ones.

Constrained Writing

Overload your work with references like Ready Player One, but make them implicit high art ones, instead of explicit pop culture ones.

For instance, instead of "She noticed the symbol of the muted post horn from The Crying of Lot 49 scrawled in chalk on the ground," write "She noticed a figure of a triangle connected to a loop scrawled in chalk on the ground."
