  • One Page Graphic Novel: The Thames Megalodon 
The above image appears to be some kind of map, but is actually an attempt to tell a big story within one frame. In a way, it is a game of narrative, as there is a list of important points to make as you guide yourself through it.
From the creaor, Henry Flint:

Welcome to a new story telling medium… the One Page Graphic Novel. Is this a gimmick? Yes, probably.
Keith is a dustman who is shot into the future by a Time Vortex. He  meets three companions and they start an epic adventure and It’s up to  you to fill in the gaps.

  • Good Night - Unknown 19 via Abstract Comics
An abstract comic made with found images.

Good Night - Unknown 19 my latest comic in this series experimenting with found images from  across the internet. With these I am interested in juxtaposing images to  form emotive responses. I see these as provoking rather than leading  narrative.

  • SVK - Graphic Novel whose character’s thoughts can only be seen in ultra-violet light

SVK is a collaboration between writer Warren Ellis (Transmetropolitan, Planetary, Crooked Little Vein, RED), artist Matt “D’Israeli” Brooker (Stickleback, Lazarus Churchyard, 2000AD) and London-based design studio BERG.
An experimental publication, SVK comprises the SVK object and a comic book.
Comics break the rules of storytelling, invent new ones,  and break them again – more often than almost any other medium. This  graphic novella is about looking – an investigation into perception,  storytelling and optical experimentation that inherits some of the  curiosities behind the previous work of BERG.
Litho printed on 115gsm silk paper in tones of black and  blue, SVK uses a third ink invisible without the SVK object. The object  is a UV light source which unlocks hidden layers woven throughout the  comic book. Reading SVK becomes a unique and strange experience as you  see the story unfold through the eyes of Thomas Woodwind.
First and foremost SVK is a modern detective story, one that Ellis describes as “Franz Kafka’s Bourne Identity”.
It’s a story about cities, technology and surveillance, mixed with human themes of the power, corruption and lies that lurk in the data-smog of our near-future.

  • A new way to interact with fiction by Jonathan M. Guberman

    Playing Zork on a typewriter! Custom software by Jim Munroe coming soon! More information here:
    upnotnorth.net/​2010/​10/​29/​a-new-way-to-interact-with-fiction/
    Automatic typewriting, which can write on it’s own, and predict what the writer may type.
    The inclusion of a typewriter is pretty cool, but to get an idea of autocomplete-writing, try out Google Scribe.

  • Sumedicina — A Data Fiction
Jana Lange and Kim Asendorf explore the possibilities of telling fictional stories in a completely new way. Instead of printing the story word by word they let the user discover the storyline within a set of data visualizations.

  • “A self does not amount to much, but no self is an island […] [E]ven before he is born, if only by virtue of the name he is given, the human child is already positioned as the referent of a story recounted by those around him, in relation to which he will inevitably chart his course.”
