Generating Media Stories - Play It Again, Sam

New types of knowledge spaces, such as the Semantic Web, allow for yet uncharted forms of knowledge exploration and social relationships. Such interactive, open and multimodal environments sustain the activation of articulation expressions that form the basis of adaptive discourses. In this paper we are in particular interested what story generation requires, in such a context, from authors and how that reflects on the accessibility of the information to users. The examples are taken form the domain of documentary making.
