T2G: Tale of Two Girlfriends

Info about the Project

This project is based on Janet Murray’s abstraction framework for creating variation in interactive narratives, proposed in “A Tale of Two Boyfriends: A Literary Abstraction Strategy for Creating Meaningful Character Variation.” The project departs from previous iterations examining heterosexual love triangles and centers its focus on lesbian love triangles, with an emphasis on female agency within traditional Western romance narratives. Using this pattern, authors can explore variants in stories and generate parameterized five-act storylines.
