Abstract
ShapeShifting TV denotes an approach to interactive television programmes that can adapt during delivery to the preferences of the active viewers. ShapeShifting TV is based on a declarative language called Narrative Structure Language (NSL) and is accompanied by a set of genre and production independent authoring and delivery tools. ShapeShifting TV was validated via a number of productions. A Golden Age – a configurable interactive documentary – is one of them. This paper presents the production of A Golden Age within the ShapeShifting paradigm.
