Node Status: SKETCH
Computational Approaches
- Directed. Assembled scenes. Top-down.
- Focus on authorial control and well-formed stories.
- But still have separate characters and world modelled.
Emergent: Bottom-up. Modeling characters. Complex world simulations.
Rule-based and Planning
Story level: Story-grammars. (good for story generation)
Character level: Young (Reidl? Magerko??)
author level
Assembled Scene-based
- Story components are assembled on the fly, at run-time.
- Probably has a history of past events, but these systems have a plan for future events. Closest thing might be a guiding variables (such as tension).
- Grasbon & Braun's Geist
- Tomaszewski & Binsted's Eudaemon
- Mateas & Stern's Facade
- Crawford's Erasmatron
Case-Based Reasoning
- Fairclough's OPIATE
- Peinado
Commonalities: story atoms, drama manager, rules/story form
