Transmedia Zurich: Narrative and Story Structure in Games and MediaMark Melnykowycz
We often talk of stories and designing great experiences, but how does the medium we choose (book, movie, spoken-word, mobile game, etc.) influence the structure of the story.
Why is it that you can predict the key points of a sitcom without knowing all the details of the plotline? Story structure in myths we've been told since before we could speak influence how we see the world and how we tell our own stories.
The Transmedia Zurich meetup on June 27th, 2013 was all about how story structure can be identified and used in the design process, either as a basis for transmedia productions, or in smaller projects.
Mark (Lost In Reality / idezo) gave an overview of basic story strucutre, and how it is applied to different media. Included are references to the work by Joseph Campbell (The Hero with a Thousand Faces) and how choosing a narrative can be used to target the emotional design of a product (film, game, book, etc.).

Absurdity in to the lighthouse, waiting for Godot, Wasteland and Birthday partyNamrataba Zala
Respected sir and fellow classmates here by i am sharing my presentation of modernist literature topic named "Absurdity in To the lighthouse, waiting for Godot, wasteland and birthday party".
The stories are everywhere in the world. The characters are scattered all around us. We as narrators
need to pick up such stories and connect them to real life situations. Fiction can be a technique to place stories
in real contexts and derive meanings out of them. There are instances where the storytellers, the writers have
symbolized messages through a storyline that is genuine and realistic. Stories are ample, in profusion. They
have substance, carrying weight. Writers simply need the sincerity of purpose to get such narratives out in

Paper 1 Prompt Background:
Greek tragedies are plays that were intended to reinforce traditional religious values, as ancient Greek society became more and more sophisticated. In
Poetics
(which is linked from the course main page, if you want to check it out), the philosopher Aristotle discusses poetry (including epic poetry) and theatre, describing the similarities and differences in terms of format, method, and overall purpose. He provides that all artistic representations of life (which present the possibility of what could be real life, without actually describing real events) fulfill humanity's desire to experience and learn.
"Though the objects themselves may be painful to see, we delight to view the most realistic representations of them in art... The explanation is to be found in a further fact: to be learning something is the greatest of pleasures not only to the philosopher but also to the rest of mankind, however small their capacity for it; the reason of the delight... is that one is at the same time learning - gathering the meaning of things.”
Tragedy in particular should make people feel intensely and think carefully:
"A tragedy...is the imitation of an action that is serious and also, as having magnitude, complete in itself; it is in a dramatic, not narrative form; with incidents arousing pity and fear, wherewith to accomplish its catharsis of such emotions."
“Structure of tragedy at its best should be complex, not simple, and that it should represent actions capable of awakening fear and pity.”
It should
“appeal to our humanity, or awaken pity or fear in us...the well conceived plot will have a change in fortune from prosperity to misery, and it will be due not to depravity, but to some great error."
While Greek tragedies are not specifically meant to be character studies, the best tragedies incorporate protagonists whom audiences both respect and identify. Aristotle describes tragedy as being less about a protagonist's character than it is about the way circumstances converge to affect his life: the things that happen to him, and the consequences of the actions he takes in the course of the experience. Aristotle writes:
"Tragedy is not a representation of men but of a piece of action, of life, of happiness and unhappiness, which come under the head of action, and the end aimed at is the representation not of qualities of character but of some action; and while character makes men what they are, it's their actions and experiences that make them happy or the opposite."
In other words, you can have a full-fledged tragedy without knowing much about who a character is inside, but the more you know him, the more the events of the tragedy can make you feel for the character and understand the gravity of what is happening to him. The changes - normally bad - that occur in the tragic protagonist's life create the "pi ...

Sanfte Mobilität kann einen wichtigen Beitrag zu einer hohen Aufenthaltsqualität und damit zum touristischen Erfolg einer Destination leisten. Der Workshop zeigt auf, wie sich die Förderung der sanften Mobilität positiv auf die nachhaltige Entwicklung einer Tourismusdestination auswirkt. Aus dem Handbuch “Sanfte Mobilität für alpine Destinationen“ werden erfolgreiche Praxisbeispiele aus den Bereichen Angebotsgestaltung, An- und Abreise sowie Kommunikation präsentiert. Dazu gehören beispielsweise Angebote für die bedarfsgerechte Erschliessung der ersten und letzten Meile, wie beim Gepäcktransport, oder auch die Förderung der „Human Powered Mobility“ und der Elektromobilität in den Destinationen. Die Präsentation erfolgt mittels Power Point und in der zweiten Hälfte in einem Kurzfilm. Im mittleren Block werden die brennenden Themen und Fragen der Teilnehmenden aufgegriffen.

Der Referent zeigt den Stand der aktuellen Mobilität in der Schweiz auf und verweist auf bestehende Probleme und Lösungsstrategien hin. An der "Europäischen Verkehrskonferenz 2015" wurde der aktuelle Stand der Forschung im Bereich autonom fahrender Fahrzeuge aufgezeigt. In der Schweiz laufen Forschungen hauptsächlich an den ETH Zürich und Lausanne, der ZHAW (Hochschule für Angewandte Wissenschaften) in Zürich, und an der HEVS. Die Forschung fokussiert sich vorwiegend noch auf technische Aspekte. Sehr aktiv im Bereich der Fragestellung ist dabei auch das Mobility Lab. Die Schweizer Post AG, der Kanton Wallis, die Stadt Sitten, die EPFL und die HES-SO Valais-Wallis haben ihre Kompetenzen vereint, um innovative Lösungen in Sachen Mobilität zu entwickeln und auszuprobieren. Die Entwicklung und der Einsatz von selbstfahrenden fahrerlosen Fahrzeugen wird einen enormen Einfluss auf den zukünftigen Verkehrsmarkt haben. Die heutigen Nutzungsmuster, Besitz- und Geschäftsmodelle werden grundsätzlich verändert. Bezüglich öffentlichen Verkehr hat der Verband Deutscher Verkehrsunternehmen (VDV) ein Positionspapier veröffentlicht, welches eine Auslegeordnung der Chancen und Risiken macht. Der Referent geht in seinem Vortrag auch auf wirtschaftliche, technische, planerische und soziale Elemente ein, welche die Entwicklung und Einführung selbstfahrender Fahrzeuge hemmen könnten.

When most people in the industry talk about online or digital reputation management, what they're really saying is Google search and PPC. And it's usually reactive, left dealing with the aftermath of negative information published somewhere online. That's outdated. It leaves executives, organizations and other high-profile individuals at a high risk of a digital reputation attack that spans channels and tactics. But the tools needed to safeguard against an attack are more cybersecurity-oriented than most marketing and communications professionals can manage. Business leaders Leaders grasp the importance; 83% of executives place reputation in their top five areas of risk, yet only 23% are confident in their ability to address it. To succeed in 2024 and beyond, you need to turn online reputation on its axis and think like an attacker.\

Digital Commerce Lecture for Advanced Digital & Social Media Strategy at UCLA...Valters Lauzums
E-commerce in 2024 is characterized by a dynamic blend of opportunities and significant challenges. Supply chain disruptions and inventory shortages are critical issues, leading to increased shipping delays and rising costs, which impact timely delivery and squeeze profit margins. Efficient logistics management is essential, yet it is often hampered by these external factors. Payment processing, while needing to ensure security and user convenience, grapples with preventing fraud and integrating diverse payment methods, adding another layer of complexity. Furthermore, fulfillment operations require a streamlined approach to handle volume spikes and maintain accuracy in order picking, packing, and shipping, all while meeting customers' heightened expectations for faster delivery times.
Amid these operational challenges, customer data has emerged as an important strategy. By focusing on personalization and enhancing customer experience from historical behavior, businesses can deliver improved website and brand experienced, better product recommendations, optimal promotions, and content to meet individual preferences. Better data analytics can also help in effectively creating marketing campaigns, improving customer retention, and driving product development and inventory management.
Innovative formats such as social commerce and live shopping are beginning to impact the digital commerce landscape, offering new ways to engage with customers and drive sales, and may provide opportunity for brands that have been priced out or seen a downturn with post-pandemic shopping behavior. Social commerce integrates shopping experiences directly into social media platforms, tapping into the massive user bases of these networks to increase reach and engagement. Live shopping, on the other hand, combines entertainment and real-time interaction, providing a dynamic platform for showcasing products and encouraging immediate purchases. These innovations not only enhance customer engagement but also provide valuable data for businesses to refine their strategies and deliver superior shopping experiences.
The e-commerce sector is evolving rapidly, and businesses that effectively manage operational challenges and implement innovative strategies are best positioned for long-term success.

To give the audience a window into the story.
To identify and merge with him/her and

Heroes have qualities that we all can identify with and recognize in ourselves.
Stories invite us to invest part of our personal identity in the Hero for the

The Hero is the one who learns or grows the most in the course of a story.

The true mark of a hero is sacrifice - his willingness to give up something of value, perhaps
even his own life on behalf of an ideal or a group.
At the heart of every story is the confrontation with death.
With the threat of death or symbolic death.
True heroism is shown in stories when Heroes offer themselves on the altar of chance,
willing to take the risk that their quest for adventure may lead to danger, loss or death.
Heroes accept the possibility of sacrifice.

12. Why is so much of our life
spent inside stories?
!
„Stories are equipment for living.“ (Kenneth Burke)
!
„How should a human being lead his life?“ Aristotle, Ethics
!
„Story Arts have become humanity’s prime source of inspiration, as it seeks to order chaos
and gain insight into life. Our appetite for story is a reflection of the profound human need to
grasp the patterns of living within a very personal, emotional experience.“ (Robert McKee)
!
„Fiction gives life its form.“ (Jean Anouilh)
13. Story
A Journey which the audience takes with the characters.
A process of conflict and resolution. Of change and revelation.
A marriage between Plot and Character.
A good story is always governed by some basic human truth and it will have some
qualities that are universal.
A good story is not about a good hero and a bad villain, a good story is about
dilemma.
17. Audience watches a film
Paying attention to the screen
Identify what things are
Reading the signs and characters
Make connections: what does this mean?
They guess what will happen next
Worry about the characters and their outcome
End: Emotional closure of surprise and vindication
18. Catharsis: the purification or
purgation of the emotions (especially
pity and fear) primarily through art. In
criticism, catharsis is a metaphor used
by Aristotle in the Poetics to describe
the effects of true tragedy on the
spectator (Encyclopaedia Brittanica)
Aristoteles, Poetics
Agnorisis: the insight happens at the same moment
like the transition from harm to happiness
Peripeteia: a turning point, a change from
luck to bad luck, from joy to disaster, with
high emotional impact
Pathos: the acute threat of a disaster - with the
utmost probability that it happens
23. Overstepping a treshold
The hero/ protagonist oversteps a
threshold between two semantic zones and
enters a new world.
He/She changes - and her/his appearance
changes the characters in the new
semantic zones.
This is a key element of Story.
24. The inciting incident
For better or worse, an event throws a
characters life out of balance, arousing in him
the conscious and/or unconscious desire for
that which he feels will restore balance,
launching him on a Quest for his object of
desire against forces of antagonism (inner,
personal, extra-personal). He may or may not
achieve it. This is story in a nutshell.
(Robert McKee, Story)
