Daydreaming with Intention: Scalable Blending-Based Imagining and Agency in Generative Interactive Narrative

چکیده
This paper presents recent development of a blending-based system that generates interactive narrative output. Besides expanding the GRIOT system to dynamically reconfigure discourse, we introduce a novel construct called a “scale of intentionality.” As a cultural production, the first application of these advances is an interactive narrative of a character’s daydreamed memories, intertwined within a story world. Our approach is technically grounded in algebraic semiotics, conceptual blending theory, computational narrative research, and is informed by the notion of critical technical practice of AI research.

Daydreaming with Intention: Scalable Blending-Based Imagining and Agency in Generative Interactive Narrative
Daydreaming is a creative human capacity to construct and run imaginative concepts through the mind in parallel with perception and awareness of the real world. Such experiences can be described in recent cognitive science terms as cases of “mirror network” or “double-scope” conceptual blending, the mental processes of integrating and dynamically executing concepts with shared or clashing under...
متن کاملWalking Blues Changes Undersea: Imaginative Narrative in Interactive Poetry Generation with the GRIOT System
Emotionally stirring imaginative narratives help us to make sense of the human condition, including elements of life such as the nature of tragedy, joy, and compassion. Such issues, including happiness and beauty, are seldom interpreted as having much to do with computation. This paper presents an approach to computational narrative that emphasizes meaning and imagination. This approach is base...
متن کاملPlayer Agency in Interactive Narrative: Audience, Actor & Author
The question motivating this review paper is, how can computer-based interactive narrative be used as a constructivist learning activity? The paper proposes that player agency can be used to link interactive narrative to learner agency in constructivist theory, and to classify approaches to interactive narrative. The traditional question driving research in interactive narrative is, ‘how can an...
متن کاملApproaching a Player Model of Game Story Comprehension Through Affordance in Interactive Narrative
A growing body of work in games research, both generative and analytic, seeks to characterize the relationship between a player’s understanding of an interactive narrative and her options for action within it. This paper provides several definitions that collectively serve as a basis for a model of the user’s comprehension of an unfolding story in a game. Central to this approach, we define the...
متن کاملActive Animation: An Approach to Interactive and Generative Animation for User-Interface Design and Expression
The traditional view of animation is a medium-specific perspective: animation is a sequence of images on film. In contrast, we employ a wider, interdisciplinary theoretical lens, based on a phenomenological perspective of animation. We describe animation as the experience of artifacts imbued with apparent “animacy,” or “liveliness,” and identify a range of media artifacts where an account of an...
