1. Method for distributing security media, comprising the steps of:

  • accessing one or more audio or visual stream provided according to a non-linear template or script comprising at least one branching point; and

    transmitting the stream according to a meta-data or label for accessing such stream;

    wherein the stream is provided for security to a distributed group of network-extensible media appliances, such stream being provided using programmable digital effects processing via real-time signal processing to convert a communication format of the provided stream, wherein the converted stream is associated with one or more meta data tag for synchronizing stream production or rendering thereof with one or more other stream provided by one or more other appliance in the group, such synchronization automatically enabling seamless collaboration or dynamic integration by the group appliances using one or more tag to produce a media project or reconstruct a covered event, whereby such distributed group serves effectively as a mobile reconfigurable effects studio for digitally processing synchronized streams in the group in a network extensible manner.
