“…The challenge lies in framing a common platform in which both aspects make sense together. To frame this platform, it was suggested to start with a fixed narrative which is overlayed with interactive elements through the development of characters within the narrative [ 21 ]. This approach is based on the video games context and thus leans on a development framework much related to how players interact with games [ 21 ].…”

In light of the current debate on the impact of our current food system on climate change and related mitigation strategies, addressing the acceptance of sustainability aspects within consumer behavioral issues is of vital importance. However, the field remains mute on how those strategies can be designed and employed effectively to stimulate sustainable food consumption behavior. Immersive narrative design is a promising approach to engaging consumers in this context. Within this study, we shed light on how to create immersive, impactful, interactive narratives in augmented reality (AR) together with consumers. We propose a novel approach to how those stories can be planned, utilizing participatory design methods. Within a step-wise process, we develop the storyboard together with consumers. In the next step, we evaluate multiple approaches with AR application developers on how this storyline can be enhanced in AR considering the perspective of various stakeholders like developers, behavioral scientists, and consumers. Finally, we propose a conceptual framework for how immersive narratives can be designed and validated in a collaborative, multidimensional approach for impactful AR narrative content designs to stimulate sustainable food behavior for consumers.

“…Specifically, the work presented in [11] provides a practical approach to structuring a branching story, using four stages: paper, prototype, production, and testing. There are also approaches for character development from different perspectives [22]. But otherwise there is limited advice for authors.…”

Abstract. Despite the increasing popularity of locative interactive stories their poetics are poorly understood, meaning that there is little advice or support for locative authors, and few frameworks for critical analysis. The StoryPlaces project has spent two years working with over sixty authors creating locative stories. Through analyzing the stories themselves, and interviewing readers, we have developed a simple writer's toolkit that highlights the challenges and opportunities offered by locative fiction. In this paper we describe our approach, and outline twelve key pragmatic and aesthetic considerations that we have derived from our experience and analyses. Together these reveal that the main challenge in locative literature lies in aligning the narrative text, the structural logic, and the demands and affordances of the landscape.

“…For example, Burg et al use constraint logic programming to analyze time-relations in a William Faulkner short story [BBL00]. High-level narrative development frameworks have been described by Strohecker and Brooks [Bro96,Bro97,Str97]; these systems are aimed at all aspects of (perhaps interactive) story development, and not the specifics of representation.…”
