Auditory augmentation system and method of composing a media product

摘要

An auditory augmentation system includes a database with a multiplicity of audio sections and associated metadata for digital audio files. Each audio section is mapped to a contextual theme, each contextual theme being mapped to an audio section having an entry point and an exit point. The entry and exit points support seamless splice or fade transitions between different audio sections. A processing system couples to the database along with an input; the input is in the form of temporally-varying events data that defines a temporal input. The processing system resolves the temporal input into one or more of a plurality of categorized contextual themes, correlates the categorized contextual themes with metadata associated with selected audio sections relevant to the one or more categorized contextual themes, and splices or fades together selected audio sections, and generates, as an output, a media product in which transitions between audio sections are seamless.
