Abstract
According to one embodiment, a plurality of spatial publishing objects (SPOs) is provided in a multidimensional space in a user interface. Each of the plurality of spatial publishing objects is associated with digital media data from at least one digital media source. The user interface has a field for the digital media data. A user is provided via the user interface with a user presence that is optionally capable of being represented in the user interface relative to the plurality of spatial publishing objects. The digital media data associated with the at least one spatial publishing object are combined to generate a media output corresponding to the combined digital media data.
Claims26
A computer-implemented method of communicating comprising:
- providing, by a three-dimensional user interface application executing on client computing devices and in communication with an application server software module stored on a remote server computing system and associated with at least one spatial publishing object database, a three-dimensional user interface comprising a first mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects retrieved in response to a query from a first client computing device to the remote server computing system, wherein a first spatial publishing object of the first mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects is associated with a data structure, the data structure comprising a second mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects that are associated with a communication space of the first spatial publishing object;
- displaying, on a first client computing device, a first audiovisual output from the communication space of the first spatial publishing object while simultaneously displaying, on a second client computing device, a second audiovisual output from the second mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects associated with the communication space, wherein a second user spatial publishing object associated with the second client computing device has connected and entered into the communication space, wherein the first and second audiovisual outputs represent simultaneous spatial publishing object activities viewable from the communication space;
- and
- displaying on the second client computing device from within the communication space the first mutable plurality of spatial publishing objects outside the boundaries of the communication space.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising computer-executable instructions that when executed by a hardware processor perform a method comprising:
- providing, by a three-dimensional user interface application executing on client computing devices and in communication with an application server software module stored on a remote server computing system and associated with at least one spatial publishing object database, a three-dimensional user interface comprising a first mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects retrieved in response to a query from a first client computing device to the remote server computing system, wherein a first spatial publishing object of the first mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects is associated with a data structure, the data structure comprising a second mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects that are associated with a communication space of the first spatial publishing object;
- displaying, on a first client computing device, a first audiovisual output from the communication space of the first spatial publishing object while simultaneously displaying, on a second client computing device, a second audiovisual output from the second mutable plurality of three-dimensional spatial publishing objects associated with the communication space, wherein a second user spatial publishing object associated with the second client computing device has connected and entered into the communication space, wherein the first and second audiovisual outputs represent simultaneous spatial publishing object activities viewable from the communication space;
- and
- displaying on the second client computing device from within the communication space the first mutable plurality of spatial publishing objects outside the boundaries of the communication space.
