Each work encourages users to identify with a certain perception, and a special bond is formed between us and the lives presented on our screens. Through the use of sensory information, the three works place users in the position of their narrators. In Abrahams’ Separation, we are forced to adopt certain physical positions to go through the same trials as the pained people described in the poem. In Carpenter’s Entre Ville, we experience the narrator’s memories through a series of fragmented poems, videos, sounds, and drawings, which all overwhelm our senses and make us feel as though we are standing in the middle of the neighborhood with her. In Galatea, the user is the agent of narration, so each decision has a corresponding outcome. Through the process, the user empathizes with Galatea, a tortured museum statue.
