A bit, I think any cohesive multimedia experience (even if it's really experimental) will start out with a written outline, if not an entire written story. I actually just googled some stuff and found this: "Hyperliterature" by James Yu, https://jamesyu.org/hyperliterature/
>The vast majority of fiction on the web is nonergodic: stories presented as linear text. Yet, in an age where everyone has a supercomputer in their pocket, literature can take on any shape imaginable. In recent years, some pieces have taken advantage of these capabilities—not as a gimmick, but in a way that is integral to the narrative.
>Let’s call this hyperliterature
>Imagine a love story told through interactive Gmail threads. Or a corporate heist as seen through the history of a Google Doc, where blinking cursors become characters and edits drive the plot. Or a tale where the main character goes mad, and the words themselves begin to seize control of the webpage as you scroll.
It's exactly what I was I thinking about, and I only really thought to search it because of your comment lol - some of them read more like short stories, some of them are much more experimental. There's also a list of different examples of it he's compiled there (he's got 17776 at the top too). Anyway, nothing against a conventional short story, just some content for possible inspiration.
