Abstract

This paper addresses the process of patterning reconfigurable video narrative by architectural theory, through a case-study of practice-based research on the interactive small-screen movie Gormenghast Explore. It focuses on the topography of cinematic narrative as architectural construction, refashioning Kevin Lynch?s urban categories and Christian Norberg-Schulz?s concept of place as design ontology. This architectural framework provides an effective representation for both navigable narrative content and 3D interface.
