In computer-participative multimedia applications, the computer not only manipulates media, but also digests it and performs independent actions based on media content.

The system is unique in that it combines the programming techniques of visualization systems and the temporal sensitivity of multimedia systems. I report measurements made of the performance of the VuSystem, which demonstrate its practicality. I conclude with a brief summary of users ' experiences with the VuSystem, and suggests, |
