Word of mouth - Storytelling
1 Storytelling often involves improvisation or embellishment. Stories or narratives have been
shared in every culture as a means of entertainment, education, cultural preservation and in order to instill
moral values.

Word of mouth - Storytelling
1 The earliest forms of storytelling were thought to have been primarily oral
combined with gesture storytelling for many of the ancient cultures. The
Australian Aboriginal people painted symbols from stories on cave walls as a
means of helping the storyteller remember the story. The story was then
told using a combination of oral narrative, music, rock art, and dance.

Word of mouth - Storytelling
1 Traditionally, oral stories were committed to memory and then
passed from generation to generation. However, in literate societies, written and televised
media have largely replaced this method of communicating local,
family, and cultural histories. Oral storytelling remains the dominant
medium of learning in some countries with low literacy rates.

Organizational storytelling
1 'Organizational storytelling' is an emerging discipline in the study of
management, strategy and organization studies. As an emerging discipline it is contested ground, with
some academics describing it is a purposeful tool to be used by business people, and others
describing it is a way of understanding and interpreting
organizational life.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Organizational storytelling
1 For those that believe it to be a powerful managerial tool, it is seen as the key leadership Competence (human resources)|competency for

methodology for deciphering a deeper understanding of
organizational life, storied accounts represent a unique insight into how
individuals make sense of their world.

Interactive storytelling - History
1 In the early 1980s Michael Liebowitz developed Universe, a conceptual
system for a kind of interactive storytelling
https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Interactive storytelling - History
1 During the 1990s, a number of research projects began to appear,
such as the Oz Project led by Dr. Joseph Bates and Carnegie-Mellon University, the Software Agents
group at MIT, the Improv Project led by Ken Perlin at New York University,
and the Virtual Theater group at Stanford, led by Dr. Barbara Hayes-
Roth.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Interactive storytelling - History
1 There were also a number of conferences touching upon these subjects, such as the Workshop on Interactive Fiction Synthetic
Realities in 1990; Interactive Story Systems: Plot Character at Stanford in 1995; the
AAAI Workshop on AI and Entertainment, 1996; Lifelike Computer Characters,
Snowbird, Utah, October 1996; the First International Conference on Autonomous
Agents at Marina del Rey, CA. February 5–8, 1997.

Interactive storytelling - History
1 The first conference to directly address the research area was the 1st International
Conference on Technologies for Interactive Digital Storytelling and Entertainment, which
took place in March 2003 and focussed specifically on concepts and first prototypes for
automated storytelling and autonomous characters, including modelling of emotions and the user experience.Stefan Göbel, Proceedings of the 2nd Technologies for Interactive Digital
Storytelling and Entertainment

Interactive storytelling - History
1 The 2000s saw a growth in work on interactive storytelling and related topics, presented at events which including the alternating bi-yearly conferences, TIDSE ICVS (International Conference on Virtual Storytelling) and hosted in German and
France, respectively. TIDSE and ICVS were superseded by ICIDS (International Conference on Interactive Digital
Storytelling), a yearly event established in 2008.

Interactive storytelling - History
1 The first published interactive storytelling software that was widely
recognized as the real thing was Façade (interactive story)|Façade,
created by Michael Mateas and Andrew Stern
https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Interactive storytelling - Strategies
1 Crawford discusses three potential strategies for developing interactive
storytelling systems. Firstly, environmental approaches are those
which take an interactive system, such as a computer game, and
encourage the actions of a user in such a way as to form a coherent plot. With a sufficiently complex systems emergent behavior may
form story-like behavior regardless of the users actions.
https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Interactive storytelling - Strategies
1 Secondly, data-driven strategies have a library of story components which are sufficiently general that they can be combined smoothly in
response to a user's actions (or lack thereof). This approach has the
advantage of being more general that the directed environmental approach, at the cost of a much
larger initial investment. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Interactive storytelling - Strategies
1 Finally, language-based approaches require that the user and system
share some, very limited, domain-specific language so that they can react to each other and the system
can 'understand' a greater proportion of the users actions, Crawford
suggests approaches that only use, for example, pictorial languages or
restricted versions of English.,Chapters 8 to 10

1 From the background of a multimedia author, media director and designer
Eku Wand describes further strategies which are related to
structure, space, time and perspective.Eku Wand (2002). Interactive Storytelling: The
Renaissance of Narration. , Part One: Chapter 4, Pages 163-178, incl. DVD-

Interactive storytelling - The Oz project
1 The Oz project[http://www.cs.cmu.edu/afs/cs/
project/oz/web/oz.html Oz Project Home Page], Carnegie Mellon School of Computer Science was an attempt in the early 1990s to use intelligent
agent technology to attack the challenges in IS, the architecture
included a simulated physical world, several characters, an interactor, a theory of presentation, and a drama
manager

Interactive storytelling - Façade
1 Façade is an artificial-intelligence-based approach created by Michael Mateas and Andrew Stern. It was the winner of the Grand Jury Prize at the 2006 Slamdance Independent Games Festival and is recognised as the first true interactive storytelling software.
It is text based and uses natural language processing and other artificial intelligence routines to
direct the action.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html

storytelling., it continues to be discussed as a research and
approach and genetic algorithm continue to be considered a potential
tool for use in the area.

Interactive storytelling - Library of story traces
1 Figa and Tarau have used WordNetWordNet, wordnet.princeton.edu/, retrieved April 2011
to build technologies useful to interactive storytelling. This approach defines 'story
traces' as an abstract reduction (or skeleton) of a story, and 'story projection' as a
fragment of a story that can be treated as a single dramatic building block. This work
seeks to build up large repositories of narrative forms in such a way that these
forms can later be combined

Interactive storytelling - Storytron
1 Storytron is a Java (programming language)|Java based interactive story engine based around Chris Crawford's theory that creating
interactive story is similar to creating a sentence with particular emphasis
on the verb. Storytron includes a free authoring tool which is used to
script actors, stages, props, and interactions known as
verbs.[http://www.storytron.com/ Storytron.com]

Interactive storytelling - NAWLZ
1 Nawlz is an online interactive comic book series created by artist, Sutu. It combines the use of text, illustration, music, animation and interactivity to tell the story. Traditional comic panels are replaced by animated frames that
play out on a panoramic interactive digital canvas. Viewers are able to dictate the pace of
the story by clicking progress buttons. Additional animation and sound effects can be
triggered by various forms of mouse interaction. http://www.nawlz.com/hq/about/

Interactive storytelling - Interactive Narrative Design
1 As defined by Stephen Dinehart, Interactive Narrative Design
combines ludology, narratology and game design to form interactive
entertainment development methodologies
https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Interactive storytelling - Interactive Narrative Design
1 Interactive Narrative Design focuses on creating meaningful participatory
story experiences with interactive systems. The aim is to transport the
player through play into the videogame (dataspace) using their visual and auditory senses. When
interactive narrative design is successful, the VUP
(viewer/user/player) believes that they are experiencing a story.
https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends - Storytelling
1 Before Series 13, narration and dialogue were performed by a single
storyteller. This was the choice of Allcroft, who wanted the television
stories to be an extension of the way they would be told at home in a
comforting environment. All character emotions would come from the nuances of the storyteller's voice,
in conjunction with facial expressions, music, and actions on-
screen.

Trance - Oral lore and storytelling
1 Stories of the saints in the Middle Ages, mythology|myths, parables, fairy tales, oral lore and storytelling from different cultures
are themselves potentially inducers of trance. Often rhetorical device|literary devices such as repetition (rhetorical)|
repetition are employed which is evident in many forms of trance induction. Milton
Erickson used stories to induce trance as do many Neuro-linguistic psychotherapy|NLP
practitioners.https://store.theartofservice.com/the-storytelling-toolkit.html
Storytelling
1 'Storytelling' is the conveying of events in words, and images, often by improvisation
or embellishment. Stories or narratives have been shared in every culture as a
means of entertainment, education, cultural preservation, and instilling moral values. Crucial elements of stories and storytelling include Plot (narrative)|plot, Character (arts)|characters, and point of view (literature)|narrative point of view.

1 Albert Lord|Albert Bates Lord examined oral narratives from field transcripts of
Yugoslav oral bards collected by Milman Parry in the 1930s, and the texts of epics such as the Odyssey and Beowulf.Lord, Albert Bates (2000). The singer of tales, Cambridge: Harvard University Press.
Lord found that a large part of the stories consisted of text which was improvised
during the telling process.

1 The other type of story vocabulary is theme, a set sequence of story actions that structure a
tale

Storytelling - Oral traditions
1 A need to tell and hear stories is essential to the species Homo sapiensndash; second in
necessity apparently after nourishment and before love and shelter. Millions survive without
love or home, almost none in silence; the opposite of silence leads quickly to narrative,
and the sound of story is the dominant sound of our lives, from the small accounts of our day's events to the vast incommunicable constructs
of psychopaths.Price, Reynolds (1978). A Palpable God, New York:Atheneum, p.3.

Storytelling - Märchen and Sagen
1 Sagen, best translated as legends, are supposed to have actually happened, very often at a particular time and place, and they draw much of their power from this
fact. When the supernatural intrudes (as it often does), it does so in an emotionally fraught manner. Ghost and Lovers' Leap|
lovers' leap stories belong in this category, as do many UFO stories and
stories of supernatural beings and events.

1 Another important examination of orality in human life is Walter J. Ong's
Orality and Literacy: The Technologizing of the Word (1982).
Ong studies the distinguishing characteristics of oral traditions, how oral and written cultures interact and condition one another, and how they
ultimately influence human epistemology.

guiding element in the new approach to identity. Our identity is not possessed in
