Abstract: A narrative includes a number of serially connected narrative segments combined by a director or editor in a defined sequence to tell a story. Quite frequently a number of different narrative segments are available to the director or editor. A content delivery editor provides editors and directors with the ability to augment a standard with additional narrative segments that provide alternate perspectives, view, or insights to the narrative consumer. Such provides the ability to convey the same narrative to the narrative consumer using a number of plots, storylines, or perspectives. Branch points in the narrative, defined by the editor or director, provide the narrative consumer the opportunity to follow a storyline they find interesting. Each narrative consumer follows a “personalized” path through the narrative. Through social media, narrative consumers are able to discuss the narrative path with other narrative consumers who have taken a different path through the narrative.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for blow forming a container (1) from a parison (2) made of plastic. After heating, said container is preformed by a gas injected into the container (1, 2) at a low pressure of 5 bar and by expanding the inner volume of said container. The final shape of the container can then be achieved by igniting an inflammable gas injected into the container, whereby the combustion generates a higher blowing pressure, or by injecting an additional gas with a higher blowing pressure of approximately 40 bar into the container after pre-blowing. The invention aims at improving known blow forming methods in such a way that a barrier layer impervious to gases, aromatic substances or the like is produced on the inner side of the container without having to use big machines. To this end, a precursor gas is added to and mixed with the inflammable gas, the mixture is then ignited and a coating is formed on the inner surface of the container by the combustion.

Abstract: For the application of a scratch protection layer on plastic substrates, a plasma is produced by the plasma CVD method, away from the individual plastic substrate, in an excitation gas, and this excitation gas is supplied through a tube to the plastic substrate. Subsequently, an antireflection layer is applied by means of a gas flow sputter source. The apparatus provided for this has a plasma CVD chamber (1) and a gas flow sputter chamber (2), next to one another. The plastic substrates (7,8) to be coated are transported from the plasma CVD chamber (2) to the gas flow sputter chamber (1) with the aid of a transporting device (3), designed as a turning plate.

A microwave conductor (20,20' . . .) is connected with a generator (19,19' . . .) for igniting a plasma in the area of channels formed by a sheet-metal shroud (2,2') matching the configuration of the hollow body (4). A closure (7,7') is provided through which the filler opening (6, 6') of the hollow body (4) can be closed pressure-tight, and a line (9,9') for the process gas passes through the closure.

Abstract: The invention concerns apparatus for coating or etching by means of a plasma. Herein a first electrode (5) is connected to a high frequency voltage which produces plasma from a gas. A second electrode (6), on which the substrate (7) to be coated or etched is disposed, is connected to a medium frequency voltage which accelerates the ions of the plasma to the substrate (7). According to the invention, this medium frequency voltage consists of unipolar pulses that have the same amplitude for a predeterminable time interval. The number of ions impinging on the substrate (7) is thereby decoupled from the amplitude of the applied medium frequency voltage. It is determined solely by the frequency or width of these pulses.
