Using sound-segments in a multi-dimensional ordering to find and act-upon a composition

An apparatus-implemented method for acting-upon compositions that contain a sound component, the method comprising:

• obtaining or providing, by a processor or processors, an ordering of sound-segments;
• wherein said sound-segments are arranged in two or more dimensions;
• wherein two or more different sound-segments are associated with each composition in said ordering;
• wherein at least one of said two or more different sound-segments associated with each composition, includes a portion of its associated composition, which is more recognizable to user(s) than a beginning part of its associated composition;
• obtaining or providing, by a processor or processors, a current-location in said ordering that refers to one of said sound-segments in said ordering;
• changing, by a processor or processors, the current-location in said ordering, in response to each user navigation action;
• playing, by a processor or processors, the sound-segment that is associated with the current-location in said ordering, in response to each change to the current-location;
• in response to a command-action by the user:
• playing, adding, moving, removing, cutting, copying, pasting, arranging, organizing, and/or ordering;
• by a processor or processors, the composition that is associated with the sound-segment at the current-location.

One or more computer-readable memories or media, not including carrier-waves, having computer-readable instructions thereon which, when executed by one or more processing devices, implement a method of:

• Obtaining or providing, an ordering of sound-segments;
• wherein said sound-segments are arranged in two or more dimensions;
• wherein two or more different sound-segments are associated with each composition in said ordering;
• wherein at least one of said two or more different sound-segments associated with each composition, includes a portion of its associated composition, which is more recognizable to user(s) than a beginning part of its associated composition;
• obtaining or providing, a current-location in said ordering that refers to one of said sound-segments in said ordering;
• changing, the current-location in said ordering, in response to each user navigation action;
• playing, the sound-segment that is associated with the current-location in said ordering, in response to each change to the current-location;
• in response to a command-action by the user:
• playing, adding, moving, removing, cutting, copying, pasting, arranging, organizing, and/or ordering, the composition that is associated with the sound-segment at the current-location.
