RST types
 email thread: sequence vs. loose with all dimensions
 elaborate: results in focus; elaboration in EPG: show trailer
meta
 scan MM proceedings' name constraint system houdini
 general themes to maintain throughout
  human involvement; motivate: need for higher level design (but tangible)
 examples
  recreate Fiets screen dump; start with and have running
  having or not having sidebars as gen'd from nucleus-satelite
  mainly EPG but also Fiets: replace EPG with Fiets?
rhetorics of other non-text presentation forms as comparison
 list: text; video; comix; multimedia; VR; HCI design; other?: see Jim mail
 rhetorics of comics: scott mccloud; scott's reference; manga article in MM99
 rhetorics of narrative in gfx from tufte p.62 dotted lines for time/anim
  can use when can't use time
 for each form
  cites; analyse; rhetorics?
  general structure: derive rhetorics from; to be better author
 rhetorics of film/video
  jim's book; montage; kuleshov effect
  Philip Tag discusses music in film as device, see Frank for more info
  video as linguistic structure: see Jim's emails
cite
 RHS-like rhetorics in gIBIS; at least one each from list of forms
 search prev MM/rhet/dez work: ACM DL keyword search
 misc: Sutcliff; Macuhan (sp?); Allen; relational grammars
 relate to Paul de Bra's work
  linking constraints; some "concept relations" are rhetorics
 authors on rhetorics
  Grice implicature; Mann & Thompson the rhetorics
  Gross & Seidner dialog with user to get his/her needs
 from Yousef's "Visual" MM98 submission
  Heller and Martin's MM taxonomy
  Kress and Leeuwens Structure Types of a Visual
   "Reading Images: The Grammer of Visual Design" Routledge, 1996
misc topics
 relate rhetoric to narrative
 Fiets and EPG generate rhetorics but can be theoretically directly authored
  requires good and shared understanding of what they mean
 current multimedia
  inferface design; rhetorics in
  find (un)intended rhetoric: reasearch; art; industry
 hyperlinear
  text rhetoric study assumes linear
  traversed path through directed graph generates a linear
   guide with a prerequisite graph?
   Gross & Seidner do, Mann & Thompson don't
 add sentence
  Certain compositions of constraints comprise devices for communicate
  rhetorics.  The effectiveness of the devices for conveying their
  rhetorics must be maintained for all adaptation the presentation goes
  through for the user or environment
generation/authoring
 rhetorics and goal processing ala SRM-IMMPSs
 generate rhetorics from higher level metadata
 chart rhetorics to (our) constraints and the mapping between
 length of sequence and where are in it
  scrollbar; linkbar; last page not filled; keywords: first; finally; next/also
 make sure all perceived connections are from a rhetoric
  watch unintended implicature
  make list of perceivable connections
   one same of series of screen displays; adjacency: spatial; temporal; link
 MM/VR equivalent of biege plaster
  different color?; different texture?
  what rhetoric?: current?; add "speculation"?
  real world examples: acrocorinth; Santorini frescoes
 trimming
  remove certain satellites; semantics based compression
  test for rhetoric analysis; technique test for multimedia rhetorics
  like abstracts: see Mann and Thompson
gen text from rhetorics
 certain keywords convey certain rhetorics: Jim has examples
 avoid repepition of words: travelogue examples: see my travelogues
 any previous work on autogen of text with rhetorics: if not then do
 overrides/extension
  domain-specific; enable human touch for particular renditions
 use of constraints
  number of words per node
   remove less important; restructure text to node assignemnet
 particular techniques
  avoid repetion of key phrases: rotate: randomize
  use of numbers to convey sequences
   actual numbers: "first", "second", ..., "finally"
 affects not just content
  formatting; cross-referencing; matter of style; lead in to structure in MM
  gen'd speech
   timing of when integrated in MM; Jim has knowledge of tone usage
   other gen'd speech aspects: speed; earcons; pitch
