  • Abstract
    Different forms of story telling have been developed to suit different distribution media: cinema has feature films, the printing press has novels, but what new story form is proposed for broadband? Currently, information and entertainment is distributed over broadband networks via forms borrowed from other media. This paper introduces story forms specifically created for broadband distribution and a software kit that supports their production.
