  • Publication number: 20130215152
    Abstract: A system and method for superimposing tiling patterns in response to a user input or other stimuli is described. Such superimpositions provide aesthetically pleasing patterns that can be used in a variety of decorative ways. Also described is a system and method for generating superimposed patterns in response to a stimuli, such as a spoken word or sound, music, or other stimulus to automatically generate superimposed patterns, or to select superimposed patterns from a database to display and in such a manner as to provide a visual display representing the stimuli.

  • Patent number: 7402743
    Abstract: “Method and apparatus entraining interactive media players into a sustained experience of “Kinesthetic Spatial Sync,” defined as a perceived simultaneity and spatial superposition between a non-tactile, full body (“free-space”) input control process and immersive multisensory feedback. Asynchronous player input actions and (MIDI tempo) clock-synchronous media feedback events exhibit a seamless synesthesia1 or multisensory events fused into an integral event perception, this being between musical sound (hearing), visual responses (sight), and body kinesthetic (radial extension, angular position, height, speed, timing, and precision). This non-tactile interface process and multisensory feedback “look and feel” is embodied as an optimal ergonomic human interface for interactive music and as a six-degrees-of-freedom full-body-interactive immersive media controller.
