Abstract
A system and method generate artistic multimedia representations of user-input texts, spoken or loaded narratives, theatrical scripts, or other linguistic corpus types, via a user interface, or batch interface, by classifying component words, and/or phrases into lexemes and/or parts of speech, and interpreting said classifications to construct playable structures. A database of natural language grammatical rules, a set of media objects, parameters, and rendering directives, and an algorithm facilitate the generation of sequential scenes from grammatical representations, convert user-input texts into playable structures of graphics, sounds, animations, and modifications, where playable structures may be combined to create a scene, or multiple scenes, and may be played in the order of occurrence in the input text as a sequential and timed multimedia representation of the input, and subsequently output, in real-time, or stored in memory for later output, via output devices such as a monitor and/or speakers.
