Abstract
This essay undertakes a materialist media analysis of the Korsakow interactive documentary software system. Through this it examines the ways in which programmatic functions address media in particular ways, and how these inform the specific types of interactive documentaries that are then able to be made. It also argues that Korsakow, as a generative, processual program, is distinct to other interactive documentary platforms.
