The sequel had another 256 Planets. ;-)<br /><br />But seriously: There was no story - the audience made up theyre own adventure and the exitement came through exploring a coherent universe despite all the severe technical limitations on realism.<br />In other words you could say that Elite Provided a quantumspace of possible adventures, that although unpredictable formed a closed storyline formed in the minds of the audience.Philipphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13900617535930627261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088201908806142355.post-35464724242373882822006-12-29T20:08:00.000+01:002006-12-29T20:08:00.000+01:00I looked up Elite and it seems pretty classic.

Do you think that Braben reached some kind of diversity threshold with 256 planets?Gabriel Shalomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00217615877740583938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088201908806142355.post-6087449657775223552006-12-29T16:39:00.000+01:002006-12-29T16:39:00.000+01:00Sure.

I'll have to do some research, but I think David Brabens 'Elite' would be a good starting point.Philipphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13900617535930627261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088201908806142355.post-90242656941101056292006-12-29T16:00:00.000+01:002006-12-29T16:00:00.000+01:00I definitely want to learn more about what is alre...I definitely want to learn more about what is already out there. I would like to know what the IMAX people concluded about higher frame rates. I am most interested in the prospect of movement during milisecond durations.<br /><br />Video games are an excellent starting point for quantum narrative. Would you like to make a post about your thoughts on that?Gabriel Shalomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00217615877740583938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4088201908806142355.post-68085650496992226502006-12-29T15:47:00.000+01:002006-12-29T15:47:00.000+01:00Well, concerning the framerate, I am not sure that...Well, concerning the framerate, I am not sure that it has such a big impact as there are/were experiments with high framerates. I think i remember that the Imax people had several nextgen cinema experiments running one of which used a higher framerate.<br />You could also compare that to computer games which are running at higher framerates most of the time.<br />Maybe computer games are not a bad place to start thinking about non-traditional not narrative ways of communicating.Philipphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13900617535930627261noreply@blogger.com
