Abstract

We present immersive storytelling in VR enhanced with non-linear
sequenced sound, touch and light. Our Deep Media (Rose 2012) aim
is to allow for guests to physically enter rendered movies with
novel non-linear storytelling capability. With the ability to change
the outcome of the story through touch and physical movement,
we enable the agency of guests to make choices with consequences
in immersive movies. We extend, IRIDiuM (Koniaris et al. 2016,
2017) to allow branching streams of full-motion light eld video
depending on user actions in real time. The interactive narrative
guides guests through the immersive story with lighting and spatial
audio design and integrates both walkable and air haptic actuators
