System and method for presentation of media related to a context

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• a storage medium for tangibly storing thereon program logic for execution by the processor, the program logic comprising:
• logic executed by the processor for receiving a request over a network from a requesting device associated for media related to a context, wherein the request comprises context criteria, the context criteria comprising social, spatial, temporal and topical criteria;
• logic executed by the processor for formulating a query based on the context criteria so as to search, via the network, for user profile data, social network data, spatial data, temporal data and topical data that is available via the network and relates to the context and to media files so as to identify a plurality of media files that are relevant to the context criteria;
• logic executed by the processor for assembling via the network a playlist containing a reference to the plurality of media files;
• and
• logic executed by the processor for transmitting the plurality of media files on the playlist over the network to the requesting device.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium tangibly encoded with computer-executable instructions, that when executed by a computing device, perform a method comprising:

• receiving a request over a network from a requesting device associated for media related to a context, wherein the request comprises context criteria, the context query comprising social, spatial, temporal and topical criteria;
• formulating a query based on the context criteria so as to search, via the network, for user profile data, social network data, spatial data, temporal data and topical data that is available via the network and relates to the context and to media files so as to identify a plurality of media files that are relevant to the context criteria;
• assembling, via the network, a playlist containing a reference to the plurality of media files;
• and
• transmitting the plurality of media files on the playlist over the network to the requesting device.
