Circulative Narrative Generation Based on the Mutual Transformation between Narrative Conceptual Structures and Music in the Integrated Narrative Generation System

Abstract

We have proposed a new framework of narrative generation which generates narratives through the mutual transformation according to various pathways between narrative (conceptual representation) and music. This paper will continuously incorporate this framework into the integrated narrative generation system which is a comprehensive architecture for our narrative generation study and develop an experimental system combined with the integrated system. This new framework aims to apply various musical methods for composition and variation to narrative generation as a way to connect different types of media. An experiment of the mutual generation between music and narrative will show various transformation pathways or routes between music and narrative.
