@moss There’s something very interesting about nonsequential interactive narrative—the way the reader becomes collaboratively invested, the way it evokes the many avenues of interconnection, and the nonlinearity of experience, memory, and feeling.
For my grad school thesis project I made a book that had three sections, each bound on a different side so that the reader could choose different combinations of pages to read together

@tylerzonia oh that thesis sounds TREMENDOUS!!! I would love to see it. And yes to the first point!! I find it is especially intriguing how memory impacts nonlinear storytelling, my memory is really bad and I self doubt it a lot, which often means I am wondering and questioning what the story and any narrators’ memories, and I remember (did I already read this section? Do I think this means something different than what the storyteller is intending? Why do I think section X happened before Y?
