(*4cfb807c*):: If you approached the octopus project here in ATX, I think they would be happy to collaborate
(*cfaf6bd4*):: Tell meeee more !
(*4cfb807c*):: Yvonne’s sister used to do Tai Chi with my ex gf, I’ve had dinner with them a few times, their very receptive to collaborating with people. If you can be professional and make dates and times and just generally not be flakey (the scourge of the industry), they’d work with you for sure if you had material or a direction
(*cfaf6bd4*):: interesting. Got material, but still building out the git-repo. Also slowly compiling my research the last few years into a “how it was made”
(*cfaf6bd4*):: still want to see what ML GPT stuff i could use
(*cfaf6bd4*):: but ya i’m not ready for working with others on a professional level atm. I like to work asycnronsyly, because sometimes with creative projects I go a few weeks hard, then let it linger while digesting it
(*cfaf6bd4*):: Ive been learning a lotabout how video game narratives and plotlines work. Especially generative storytelling
(*cfaf6bd4*):: Using writer & [[AI]] for an [[Open Source Musical]]

# TaleBrush

As the writer generates multiple stories, TaleBrush stores each. Users can compare and choose among them (Figure 5). A dropdown menu lists the generated stories, which will be displayed on the canvas with low opacity. As the writer moves the mouse over the list, the hovered story is shown in the text box and highlighted on the canvas. The writer can select one of these to ‘roll back’ to a past generation.
we focus on visual encodings that can both express high-level changes in the story’s progression but also be manipulable.
TaleBrush can potentially be extended to support the authoring of high-fidelity, longer text. To provide such support, the tool would need to consider writers in the translation stage, where ideas and plans are transformed into detailed text.
- generative tools should be able to follow the writer’s specifications. The annotation approach would also need to be reconsidered, such as annotating the fortune of the character after summarizing the long text with crowdsourcing or algorithms. Moreover, the control and sensemaking should be re-designed for longer text. For example, a tool might allow the writer to first sketch an outline and then a detailed story. A more complete tool might enable a long-term study of how co-creation impacts writing.
Visualizing and Visually Expressing Stories
- To produce content, some tools connect the author to other humans or support collective story writing by writing stories with the crowd. These systems can structure creative leadership [77] and decision-making [78], or even simulate the characters with crowds [63]. Newer tools have adopted novel machine learning (ML) and natural language processing (NLP) techniques [153]. Among those techniques, ML’s generative functions offer a powerful alternative approach. These systems append or suggest generated texts the writer’s text using sophisticated language models [24, 28, 29, 129, 143]. In theory, these algorithms can act as writing support tools. However, limited controls and interactions—largely rephrasing prompts and contexts—constrain their applicability. Our goal with TaleBrush is to leverage these language models but provide an alternative control strategy using both text and abstract visual representations and interactions.
To realize this interaction, we implemented a technical architecture that achieves steerable story generation ( **which i’m working on in Roam Research (preparing to export to a Github Repo).
Machine Story Generation
- Reflections on generalizable design elements of control interaction for iterative human-AI co-creation and how line sketching interaction can be expanded to other generative contexts.
- A GPT based controllable language model architecture that generates story sentences with the sketching input on the protagonist’s fortune.

trend came from one creator’s account and ha #s sparked thousands of concept songs, along with stage designs and program artwork.
A self-proclaimed rat queen, Em first posted the [[Lyrics]] accapella
In a pivot from Grocery Store: The Musical, it wasn’t only singers dueting with Mertzlufft’s video to add on more vocals, but songwriters began to expand Ratoutille’s song list with their own original creations.
Songs began to develop for specific [[Character]]s, including ones being written for Remy’s dad and a tango between Colette and Linguini. #emergent #[[[[Musical]] [[Research]]]]
Since then, with the help of a few other [[TikTok]] creators, the dream of a Ratatouille musical continued to grow, each idea more hilarious than the last
- Em: #Music has always been a huge part of my life. Since I was a child, I have always walked around making up random songs about people, household items, and [[Character]]s I like. These were always private of course and mostly just to annoy my family. However, during the quarantine I discovered TikTok. I’ve spent way too many hours over these past few months browsing through videos, enjoying the latest popular songs and trends.
- Late into the quarantine in August, I felt a particular longing for my favorite place on earth, Disney World. So I had been reading an article about the new Ratatouille ride in EPCOT. Using the article as inspiration, I just began singing this on-the-spot song around my house about Remy. I found it particularly catchy and couldn’t get it out of my mind, so I decided to post a funny slideshow compilation of Remy with my song in the background. #[[Common Place Book]]
- It all started with a creator, @_victoriap17_ , who used the song in a video that caught the attention of [[TikTok]] legend Brittany Broski (@brittany_broski).
- From that, the exposure grew and creator Rocky Paterra (@rockysroad) behind the amazing “I’m an Accountant” song tagged arranger, @danieljmertzlufft. It was Daniel that took my song and created a spellbinding musical theater version with instrumental and choir voices. And thus, the idea for a virtual Ratatouille musical via Tik Tok was born. So this trend has definitely been a group effort.
