Storied Navigation is a novel approach to constructing a story based on a collection of digital video and audio. Media sequences are tagged with free-text annotations and stored as a collection. The system can then suggest media based on the context of the story.
I like the approach very much and I hope the software will be available for testing. I commented on Storied Navigation in my blog.
Do you consider creating sharing website like Youtube or Scratch to promote the approach?
Edward Yu-Te Shen’s master thesis is really interesting and I will recommend it to teachers in quest of new ways to make sense of learning and teaching experiences.
Interesting stuff. I’d love to give it a try with my boy. http://www.pinoyproblogger.com
Thank you Pino. It is very interesting to look back to this video to me as well, as I gradually move away from this project. After being challenged in the past few months for its usefulness by different people, now it seems to me that the key idea behind this whole project is this single word – perspective. People don’t need that many stories to consume for any particular event for entertaining reasons. Rather, as what’s suggested in Glorianna’s words, “…and just pick one clip after another that are linked together, based on the sort of perspective you wanna have…”, if perspectives are of high values, then the Storied Navigation framework would be an interesting playground for people to compose, share, and even crtique their perspectives with each other. Example scenarios would be peer learning environments (as Pino mentioned), political discussions, critique over creative pieces/products/artifacts/documents, and so on.
I like the idea of collaborating with the computer and having it be used as a real tool for storytelling rather than having to go through a bunch of media to get a certain piece. Absolutely great stuff.
