The visual story I chose was Hobo Lobo of Hamelin. By the far the most hysterical and realistic in a scary way. The live comic strip is a modern day remake of “The Pied Piper” with a mixture of European folktale, political satire, and internet snark in a 3D story box.
This shows the evolution of where story telling is going in the future because when I read this I was fascinated oddly of how the story came to life digitally. What was scary is that this was more engaging than an actual picture book and it shows what books can be or will be in the future. Still I think there is something to consider, would electronic comics be a good genre to include in the electronic literature world?
I was able to navigate at the top , by pressing the numbers, and that gives a floating navigation, that passes where you are going and then goes a bit back, a very nice effect that brings out the 2D depth of the visual aspect. If the numbers navigation not had this effect, you could have missed the very nice animation effects of the piece. The other way of navigation is simply using the arrow keys, you can go back and forwards as you wish.
