This paper examines that the storytelling is to be based on cognitive science in terms of cultural studies, schema theory, and the narrative. Human being is a natural storyteller, so that the digital contents era accelerates the importance of interactivity of storytelling which is moderate writing mode on One Source Multi Use, rather than the narrative in the text dominant age. This paper raises the following questions: What is the making meanings? How to understand cultural meanings? These momentary states are produced through the interpretation of two sorts of relatively stable structures: mental structures (which we will also call “schemas” or “understandings” or “assumptions”) and world structures. The relative stability of the world and our schemas has the effect that both in a given person and in a group of people who share a way of life, more or less the same meanings arise over and over. This paper highlights the visuospatial storytelling with the cognitive-emotional responses, the essence of schema theory, in which knowledge is not as sets of sentences but as implicit in the network of links among many simple processing units that work like neurons. How the schemas connect with metaphor? As Lakoff and Johnson see it as structuring the ideas, guiding our inferences and understanding, the metaphor is not only in poetry, but in everyday life. The crucial place of metaphor is in unconscious processing to define the conceptual metaphor, and it is to be found almost everywhere. As a consequence, this paper strongly suggests that the storytelling in cultural contents is to be structured with the cognitive culture system, where the cultural competence, idealized capacity of human being, is schematized with “parallel distributed processing” or “neural network modeling”.

Abstract

This paper examines that the storytelling is to be based on cognitive science in terms of cultural studies, schema theory, and the narrative. Human being is a natural storyteller, so that the digital contents era accelerates the importance of interactivity of storytelling which is moderate writing mode on One Source Multi Use, rather than the narrative in the text dominant age. This paper raises the following questions: What is the making meanings? How to understand cultural meanings? These momentary states are produced through the interpretation of two sorts of relatively stable structures: mental structures (which we will also call “schemas” or “understandings” or “assumptions”) and world structures. The relative stability of the world and our schemas has the effect that both in a given person and in a group of people who share a way of life, more or less the same meanings arise over and over. This paper highlights the visuospatial storytelling with the cognitive-emotional responses, the essence of schema theory, in which knowledge is not as sets of sentences but as implicit in the network of links among many simple processing units that work like neurons. How the schemas connect with metaphor? As Lakoff and Johnson see it as structuring the ideas, guiding our inferences and understanding, the metaphor is not only in poetry, but in everyday life. The crucial place of metaphor is in unconscious processing to define the conceptual metaphor, and it is to be found almost everywhere. As a consequence, this paper strongly suggests that the storytelling in cultural contents is to be structured with the cognitive culture system, where the cultural competence, idealized capacity of human being, is schematized with “parallel distributed processing” or “neural network modeling”.
