This document discusses interactive multimedia technology and the BumpTop desktop environment. It defines multimedia as combining different content forms like text, graphics, audio and video. Multimedia can be linear and play in a set order or be non-linear and interactive. BumpTop is an interactive desktop environment that uses physics effects to make documents interact more realistically when bumped or tossed. Key features of BumpTop include organizing data into piles, pinning reminders, intuitive thumbnails and sharing photos by tossing them. The conclusion states that evolving multimedia will simplify user tasks through more interactive means.

2. WHAT IS MULTIMEDIA
• Multimedia is media and content that uses a
combination of different content forms.
• This includes text, graphics, audio, video, etc.
• Multimedia is usually recorded and played,
displayed or accessed by information content
processing devices, such as computer and
electronic devices, but can also be part of a live
performance

3. TYPES OF MULTIMEDIA
• Linear :Linear active content progresses without
any navigational control for the viewer such as a
cinema presentation.
• Non-linear :Non-linear content offers user
interactivity to control progress as used with a
computer game or used in self-paced computer
based training. Hypermedia is an example of
non-linear content.

4. WHAT IS INTERACTIVE MULTIMEDIA
• An interactive multimedia technology is any
technology that accepts user input, presents
information conditionally and non-linearly in
response, and is capable of presenting
combinations of text, sounds, pictures,
animations, and/or full motion video.
• An essential feature of interactivity is that it is
mutual: user and machine each take a more or
less active role
