Abstract

A generative sound system has a generative audio engine which is controlled or influenced by the absolute or relative location and/or orientation of a plurality of individual articles or units (71). The articles may, in a variety of embodiments, include collectable cards (86), building blocks (102), articles of furniture, ornaments and so on (128, 130, 132) or portable electronic devices such as mobile phones (60). Position and orientation information may be transmitted by means of a wireless message to the compositional engine, or the engine may determine that information in other ways such as by means of a proximity sensor (124, 136).
