Interactive Story or Not?

To be honest when I began this class I had no idea that Interactive Storytelling was going to be technologically based. As days in class went on I was appalled by the fact the RPG video games, as well as others that I have played were Interactive Stories within them selves. Trying to find an Interactive Story in my opinion is quite tough. As Crawford states " Interactive storytelling is so difficult that any foothold ou can get is worth trying" I agree with him 100 % on this one. Finding the skeltal base of our story or story trace as defined in the book was quite tough, but after a while our group grasped on something, and held it tight. What interested me most in this chapter was reading about DNA and HEFTI. DNA as stated in the book is like our own "biological computer". It helps us adapt, and its kind of like the story of our lives.
