Paper Abstract:      This paper investigates storytelling as a way to interact and engage with scientific image data. Arguing that scientific practice can benefit from a moment of openness and playfulness, we look for inspiring interaction paradigms along the lines of playfulness, exploration and creativity. Storytelling is such a candidate paradigm we review and scrutinize in this paper. More specifically, we provide an overview of interdisciplinary ideas and practices regarding storytelling with images and highlight noteworthy meeting points of stories and interaction design. Special attention is paid on how the field of HCI has approached, incorporated or facilitated the act of storytelling with images. A wide range of applications, from card games to mobile applications, are collected and discussed. Existing storytelling practices and traditions could inform the design of new artifacts for a story-based interaction with scientific images.
