Abstract: Technologies are described herein for generating a binary transition file. Multiple animation structures may be generated in the binary transition file. The animation structures may define a sequence of three-dimensional meshes. A header portion may also be generated in the binary transition file. The header portion may define slides that are applied to the three-dimensional meshes to produce a transition between the slides. A presentation program application may be modified with the binary transition file, thereby adapting the presentation program application to provide the transition.

Abstract: An information system for use in information management for musical and theatrical entertainment comprising an electronically-accessible data record. The information system includes a performance element; a substrate having thereon one or more printed codes practically imperceptible to a human being; and a device having an optical reader capable of reading a selected one of the one or more printed codes on the substrate, non-volatile memory and a controller, the device further having means for providing humanly perceptible feedback, the non-volatile memory storing the performance element.
