Abstract

A system for delivery of content-based products. The system includes a content library which provides advanced interfaces for adding, manipulating, arranging and storing multimedia presentations, and for interacting with rich multimedia presentations.

Claims

1. A media construction system for constructing composite media from media elements, the media construction system comprising:

a library comprising a plurality of media elements, each of the media elements comprising one or more attributes;

a first media construct that identifies at least two media elements contained in the library, and describes a relationship between the at least two media elements;

a media constructor for assembling the at least two media elements in the described relationship, thereby forming a composite media, the composite media inheriting attributes from the one or more attributes of the at least two media elements; and

storing the composite media.

2. A media construction system for constructing a plurality of composite media from media elements, the media construction system comprising:

a library comprising a plurality of media elements;

a first media construct that identifies at least two media elements contained in the library, and describes a relationship between the at least two media elements;

the first media construct further comprising an additional media element;

a media constructor for creating a first composite media by assembling the at least two media elements in the described relationship and creating a second composite media by assembling the at least two media elements and the additional media element.

3. An on demand assembly system for assembling visual media elements of a product when the product is ordered, the assembly system comprising:

a library of visual media elements;

a library of media constructs, each of the media constructs identify at least two visual media elements contained in the library, and describing the relationship therebetween;

a product descriptor comprising at least two media constructs;

an ordering interface for receiving orders for the product;

a media constructor for constructing the product upon receiving an order for the product; and

a product transmitter to transmit the product pursuant to the order.

4. An assembly system for assembling visual media elements of a product on demand, the assembly system comprising:

a library of visual media elements;

a library of media constructs, each of the media constructs identify at least two visual media elements contained in the library, and describing the relationship therebetween;

a product descriptor comprising at least two media constructs;

an interface for demanding assembly of the product; and

a media constructor for constructing the product upon receiving a demand to assemble the product.
