''This is contrary to reading a book (which is a chronological action, page after page, scene after scene, like a railroad has stations along the line).

It is not a free choice, it is a limited list of choices in one scene. The Swedish Interactingarts Collective would name this in their book "Deltagerkultur" as Interactivity, but not as Interaction).''
