  title = {First Interdisciplinary Workshop for Human- Computer Narrative Interactions (HCNI)},
  abstract = {<p>Interactive Digital Narratives (IDNs) are accounts of connected events (a story) represented on digital systems. Through interactivity, IDNs afford ways for users to directly engage with the information embedded in the system’s rules in an accessible manner that taps into the user’s conscious, reflective learning abilities. IDN research is relatively new and there is much to be done to harness IDNs’ storytelling potential, requiring insights from fields such as Human-Computer Interaction, Digital Media &amp; Communication Studies, and Narrative Studies. This workshop brings together researchers from these and other related fields to develop practical, communal knowledge for Interactive Digital Narrative (IDN) design. Our focus is storytelling structures, techniques, and traditions that could support digital audience/user-interactions. By developing communal knowledge, we can assist IDN designers in the creation of engaging, impactful narrative experiences and guide IDN researchers toward future areas of study.</p>
