[Abstract]	This talk aims at shedding light on the intricate 
	relationship between narrative and social media by looking 
	critically at the fields of interactive storytelling, social
	IR, and multimedia research and pointing at issues that might 
	answer the question why, besides all the technology at hand, 
	we still do not see adaptive qualitative storytelling that 
	makes use of social-media story snippets the world is filled
	with.

[Short bio]	Dr. Frank Nack is tenure assistant professor at the 
       Intelligent System Lab Amsterdam (ISLA) of the Informatics 
       Institute at the University of Amsterdam (UvA).

       Video Semantics and Theme Representation for Automated Film 
       Editing," at Lancaster University, UK. The main thrust of his 
       research is on Interactive storytelling, Computational 
       applications of media theory & semiotics, Context and process 
       aware media knowledge spaces (design, interaction, memory), 
       Representation and adaptation of experiences in mobile and 
       ambient environments, Hypermedia systems that enhance human 
       communication and creativity, Representation, retrieval and 
       reuse of media in hypermedia systems, AI and film (semantics, 
       semiotics, perception) and automated video editing, and 
       Computational humour theory.
       He is staying as a JSPS Invited Professor at Graduate School of 
       Information Science, Nagoya University until August.
