    ALL DAY PANELS at the Ecole Nationle SuperIieure des Arts Decoratifs

    Co-organised by the Atelier de Recherches Interactives (ENSAD) [Interactive Research Studio] and the Industrial Design Laboratory for Interactivity at the Universite Paris 8-UFR ARTS with the help of CIREN.

    This forum is aimed at taking stock of a dimension, which from now on be vital to interactivity — its ability to create a new form of storytelling. Multimedia, networks, CD-ROMs, games and systems are where the new figures, procedures, aesthetics and economy of storytelling are emerging.
    The question of interactive storytelling unites disciplines that are ordinarily separate — not only literature, opera and cinema, but also artistic installations which, over the last few years, have underlined the dimension of storytelling. The notion of interactive storytelling also concerns the fields of graphic arts, design, museography, media and games.
