[Eloy Anzola <eloy@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

This just made its way to the eu-gene list. I know some of you are on
it, but I wanted to make sure this tool made it's way here:

> works by providing an interface through which the user can allocate 
> descriptive keywords to sprecific parts of the movie timeline.Once the 
> user is satisfied that the movie file has been adequately annotated 
> with descriptive and evocative words, these words are then 
> automatically entered into Lycos's multimedia search engine and 
> corresponding sound files are retreived from the world wide web.
> When the movie is played back, each retreived sound starts to play 
> when the point in the timeline associated with its keyword is reached.
> If the frame ranges for multiple sound files overlap, they are layered 
> together, creating an audio collage.
> The program explores the relationships between words, images and sound 
> and aims to promote serendipitous correlations between sounds found 
> through chance and evocative film moments.
