It is our great pleasure to welcome you to the 1st ACM Workshop on Story Representation, Mechanism and Context. This workshop initiates what we hope will be a tradition of being the premier forum for presentation of research results and experience reports on leading edge issues of generative story systems, including models, applications, and theory. The mission of the workshop is to have traditional and multimedia narrative researchers and practitioners share novel approaches to story making that inform, inspire, and identify new directions for future research and development. The SRMC Workshop gives multimedia story researchers and practitioners a unique opportunity to share their perspectives with others interested in the various aspects of digital and traditional narrative arts. >The call for papers attracted 20 submissions from Europe and the United States. The program committee accepted 15 papers that cover a variety of topics, including dramatic representation methods, tools for expressive story writing and reflection, and understanding the aesthetics of narrative. In addition, the program includes oral story exercises designed to illustrate the depth and facility we have as human beings to create story from little starting material and a natural wealth of context. We hope that these proceedings will serve as a valuable reference for narrative researchers and developers.
