We tell stories-Tales from the 1001 nights

It is so interesting that I can read this hypertext in a very different way. I really like the way that the hypertext let you choose the direction of the story yourself. The character is a president of a country with nuclear weapons, simmering insurgencies, and rapidly proliferating pop starlets on music television. It is raining, and the secretary Shaan Azad starts to tell a story. It is very meaningful that the story remains as a circle. Shaan Azad said the there are at least two ways to tell the tale, and one end of the story is the beginning of another story. They both telling a same tale; however, it takes more sense by using a circle. The hypertext makes the words alive, and achieves many things that a book cannot do. Such as let the story develop as you wish, which makes everything more vivid.

  1. Again, it seems everyone in our Multimedia class likes determining the fate of the characters and the conclusion of the story. I guess I just don't!
