“…There are a growing number of projects for interactive stories and drama currently in development (Young 1999;Szilas 1999;Magerko 2003;Spierling et al 2002;Stern and Mateas 2003;Louchart and Aylett 2004). There are a number of new conferences exploring the topic (AAAI Symposium on Narrative Intelligence, COSIGN-Conference on Semiotics for Games and New Media, International Conference on Virtual Storytelling, and TIDSE-Technologies for Interactive Digital Storytelling and Entertainment).…”

“…Some researchers focus on the first function (Stern and Mateas 2003), while others focus on the second one and build authoring tools (Spierling et al 2002). In all cases, any interactive narrative system must encompass both the writer and the reader points of view.…”

“…For example, the system described in Spierling et al (2002) uses the Propp model (Propp 1928), which is a decomposition of a story into 31 elementary basic functions, such as ''violation'' or ''trickery.'' This coarse grain model reduces the interaction either between the functions, through a oriented graph, or inside each piece.…”

“…The application of Propp's morphological approach to interactive storytelling was suggested in Murray [8]. For a recent example of the application of Propp's theory see Braun [9] and Spierling et al [10]. For an example of the application of Branigan ideas, see Brooks [11].…”

Storytelling in virtual environments from a virtual guide perspective

This paper describes our proposal for storytelling in virtual environments from a virtual guide perspective, detailing the involved knowledge representation and algorithms. In our model the guide begins at a particular location and starts to navigate the world telling the user stories related to the places she visits. Our guide tries to emulate a real guide's behaviour in such a situation. In particular, she behaves as a spontaneous real guide who knows stories about the places in the virtual world but has not prepared an exhaustive tour nor a storyline.

“…Native narratives were a historic art form that ensured that stories originated from and were passed through the cultural sources of the community (Hopkins, 2006). The purpose of those Native American narratives was to transfer cultural and social values of the tribe (Spierling et al, 2002). In our current culture, digital stories not only afford the transference of cultural and social values of given ethnic groups, but also inspire cultural and social understanding (Hull & James, 2007).…”

This article examines an after-school program entitled Silk City Media Workshop. Briefly, the workshop engages youth in digital storytelling as a means of enhancing both their technology and literacy skills. Transcending these goals, this workshop also provides opportunities for youth to reveal multiple aspects of their unfolding identities as well as the employment of their agency in the process. The article draws on aspects of cultural sociology and concepts of identity and agency to explore one student's digital story. The study of this student's digital story suggests how it both reveals and embodies her identity and agency. Analysis illuminates connections to her histories and interactions between herself and others. Examining the digital story through the explicated framework assists educators in understanding the ways in which students identify themselves and how those identities relate to a set of organized actions that form and re-form over lifetimes, and through collective histories.
