Galaxy’s Edge is now only a matter of months away and now word starts to leak regarding some exclusive Disney patents which appears to show some very interactive elements coming to the park, very much in the style of Westworld.

Finn, from Walt Disney News Today, takes a closer look.

How this works is that the system is given content, broken down into “bins” based on logical sequential structure, and then picks one piece of narrative from each bin to form a narrative. Think of it as a sort of Chipotle for virtual narration, you choose your meat, beans, and filling to make your burrito, only in this context the food is narrative content and the burrito is a complete narrative structure.

How it works, I have no idea but there’s every confidence that it will work brilliantly and give us all our own unique Star Wars experience.
