What is Watakushi Monogatari

Bridging the Gap Between AI, Cognitive Science, and Narratology With Narrative Generation
Watakushi Monogatari (“My Story” or “My Narrative,” or “I-Story” or “I-Narrative”) means a new narrative genre that should be practiced using narrative generation systems. Although it is a type of story or narrative genre in which narrative worlds and narrations are pursued and represented through “I” ( watakushi ), this does not necessarily mean that the narrative world to be generated should be narrow and the field related only to “I.” Rather, it means that the first-person world gradually opens to the second-person and third-person worlds to construct an entire narrative dependent on their organic relationships.

Bridging the Gap Between Narrative Generation Systems and Narrative Contents With Kabuki-Oriented Narratology and Watakushi Monogatari
Takashi Ogata (Iwate Prefectural University, Japan)
DOI: 10.4018/978-1-7998-4864-6.ch006
Abstract
The author's narrative generation study is based on two types of systems: the integrated narrative generation system (INGS) as a single narrative generation and reception mechanism and the Geinō information system (GIS) as a multiple narrative production and consumption mechanism. The first theme of the chapter is to introduce an idea that deals with narrative phenomena as the integration of both systems. This theme is tied to the topic of narrative content creation by presenting kabuki narrative generation or kabuki-oriented narratology and Watakushi Monogatari as a collection of narrative content to be created by the author. Hence, the second objective is to describe kabuki-oriented narrative generation and the third is to explain the ideas, thoughts, and design underlying Watakushi Monogatari in the context of internal and external narrative generation to create and distribute narrative content. Through these three themes, this chapter bridges the gap between narrative generation systems and narrative content with kabuki-oriented narratology and Watakushi Monogatari.

Toward External and Internal Practices of Narrative Generation
Watakushi Monogatari (“My Story” or “My Narrative,” or “I-Story” or “I-Narrative”) means a new narrative genre that should be practiced using narrative generation systems in the future. Although it is a type of story or narrative genre in which narrative worlds and narrations are pursued and represented through “I,” this does not necessarily mean that the narrative world to be generated should be narrow and the field related only to “I”; rather, it means that the first-person world gradually opens to the second-person and third-person worlds to construct an entire narrative dependent on their organic relationships.
