About

Abhinav Thukral is a researcher at the intersection of human-computer interaction and digital storytelling, with a primary focus on reimagining narrative experiences through technology. His most recognized work, "Aesop" (2019), challenges the traditional one-dimensional nature of storytelling by integrating digital media to create multi-channel, immersive engagements with audiences. While the paper has garnered 3 citations, its conceptual foundation—moving beyond passive narration toward interactive, augmented experiences—marks a significant contribution to the field of interactive narrative design. Thukral’s research addresses a critical gap in how stories are told and received, proposing frameworks that leverage digital augmentation to deepen emotional and cognitive involvement. His work is particularly relevant for scholars and practitioners exploring the convergence of narrative theory, user experience, and emerging media technologies. By advocating for richer, more participatory storytelling models, Thukral positions himself as a forward-thinking voice in the evolution of digital narrative, inspiring future research into how technology can transform age-old traditions of oral and written storytelling into dynamic, responsive experiences.
