A method comprising:
- receiving a control parameter that identifies electronic content in a database;
- creating content objects that correspond to the electronic content;
- and
- arranging the content objects as a three-dimensional collage.
A method of creating a three-dimensional collage, comprising:
- receiving control parameters;
- creating content objects in accordance with at least one of the control parameters;
- creating three-dimensional graphics objects in accordance with at least one of the control parameters;
- arranging the three-dimensional graphics objects in accordance with at least one of the control parameters;
- and
- positioning the content objects on the three-dimensional graphics objects.
An article comprising a machine-readable medium that stores executable instructions to:
