Entwicklung der Geschichte vom Fernsehspiel zur Hypermedia TV Narrative: Contemporary Serial Culture: Quality TV Series in a New Media Environment’
This chapter reflects on the development of narrative forms in television drama in relation to technological and cultural change. The first part sketches a history whilst the second part focuses on recent changes in long-form serial narrative, ultimately proposing a new cultural form, ‘hypermedia TV narrative’. Two modes of interactive and generative narrative are discussed, Dub-plate Drama and Lost. The chapter is a development of a keynote address at the “Contemporary Serial Culture” Conference, organised by ECREA TV Section at the Hochschule für Film und Fernsehen, Potsdam, 14-16 January 2010.
