The main conference in this field is ICIDS, the International Conference for Interactive Digital Storytelling. This volume contains the papers presented at the sixth ICIDS held November 6–9, 2013,inIstanbul, Turkey.While formallyonly inits sixthyear,ICIDStracesits origins back more than a decade, with roots in several European conferences. ICIDSbringstogetherscholarsandpractitionersfromareassuchascomputer science, communication and digital media studies, game studies and literary studies. Few conferences encompass such a diverse community and, while this comes with its own set of challenges, it is also an immense strength that ideas andthinkingcanflowfreelybetweensuchvarieddisciplinesandresultinalively interdisciplinary dialogue. Thediversityintheresearchcommunityiscapturedinthelogoforthisyear’s conference:abridge,whoseelementssignifythedifferentacademicandpractical perspectivesfromarttocomputation.Thisisafittingrepresentationnotonlyfor ourmultidisciplinaryfieldbutalsoforaconferenceinIstanbul,acitythatbridges two worlds — Europe and Asia — both figuratively and literally in the form of the bridges over the Bosphorus. We continue the idea of symbolic bridging in the conference motto“Connecting Narrative Worlds,”which expresses our goal for this edition of ICIDS. With this year’s conference, we especially aimed to promote understanding and to provide a platform for discussionbetween game designers, researchersin artificial intelligence, transmedia producers, digital artists, narratologists, and digitalgame scholarsfromall aroundthe world.Withthis goalinmind, we pio- neered several additions to the conference, chiefly amongstthem a separate call for interactive narrative art works and demos, which is designed to strengthen the connection between deep thinking and cutting-edge practice. We also in- troduced a short workshop format to provide more room for the discussion of innovative topics. The keynote speakers appearing at ICIDS 2013 similarly reflect the diver- sity in disciplines and perspectives. We invited renowned artist and interactive pioneer Toni Dove, the interactive storytelling expert Ernest Adams, and the independent game developer Dan Pinchbeck. Sincetheearly1990s,ToniDovehasexpandedtraditionalnarrativesthrough the use of interactive components and immersive devices to explore multiple points of view. Her 1993 piece “Archaeology of a Mother Tongue”constitutes one of the first attempts to bridge the gap between a complex narrative and a virtual-reality environment, combining performance with immersive computer- based experiences. She continued this artistic explorationin the following years until“Lucid Possession,”a work premiered in early 2013. VI Preface Ernest Adams is a game design consultant, writer, and lecturer. He is the authorofFundamentals of Game Design and Game Mechanics: Advanced Game Design (with Joris Dormans) and was lead game designer at Bullfrog/EA. At theGameDevelopersConference2006,hepresentedatalktitled“ANewVision for Interactive Stories,”which contributed to shape the debate on games and narrative in the following years. Dan Pinchbeck is Reader at the University of Portsmouth,where he pursues his research on the significance of the relationships between gameplay, story- telling,andplayerpsychology.HeisalsocreativedirectorofTheChineseRoom, the gamedesignstudio responsibleforthe criticallyacclaimed“DearEsther”in- teractive narrative game, which won the Best World/Story award at IndieCade in 2009. Papersfrom25countriesasfarapartasAustraliaandKuwaitweresubmitted to ICIDS 2013, showing that the interest in our field is not only sustained but also universal. Out of those 51 submissions, 14 long papers were selected (for a 27.4% acceptance rate). Asinpreviousyears,thepaperssubmittedwereofextremelyhighqualityand of remarkablevariety in their theoreticalapproaches.While we are very pleased withsuchhigh-qualityworkbeing submitted, deciding the bestcontributionsto acceptwasadifficulttask.WeextendourgratitudetothemembersoftheICIDS ProgramCommittee, who thoroughly reviewed the submissions and upheld the high standards of the conference once more. Finally, we can only begin to express how grateful we are to this year’s hostinstitution,Bahc¸e¸sehirUniversityFacultyofCommunication,especiallythe Department of Communication Design, and Bahc¸e¸sehir University Game Lab (BUG). They bestowed an outstanding level of support and outright generosity on the conference. The researchers who attend ICIDS come from different worlds not only by virtue of their different disciplines; they also position themselves at different points on the theoretical-practicalspectrum and now also come from nearly ev- ery part of the globe. With such a richand complex community, the ability and willingness to keep building bridges and make connections is of crucial impor- tance.AsorganizersofICIDS2013,wewishtocelebratethediverseperspectives of scholars and practitioners in our community, but also highlight how impor- tant it is for the community to stay engaged in its global dialogue — across disciplines, across theory/practice, and across geographyand cultures. We need to keep building bridges and keep using them. Welcome to the proceedings of ICIDS 2013, Connecting Narrative Worlds.
