PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a general-purpose multi-media art generating device which is similar to musical instruments in music and which is independent from individual works. SOLUTION: Operation input information of a foundation-color attribute, a strain-relaxation attribute, a background attribute, a foreground attribute are inputted from a keyboard 101, a clothing type musical instrument 102, a CCD camera 103, a tap sensor 104 and an electronic drum set 105 and corresponding attribute values are outputted from associating means 111 to 115. Moreover, these attribute values are converted into attribute values for music and for video for foundation-color attribute, for strain-relaxation attribute, for background attribute and for foreground attribute by converting means 121 to 124 and outputs depending on media for music and video are respectively applied to an output for music generating means 141 and an output for video generating means 142 and outputs with respect to musical media and media of the video are generated.

The object of the invention is to give free rein to creative instincts. Polyphonic forms of movement are to be produced via the psycho/physical dual aspect. Simultaneously, dancing is to commence and, thereby, music is also to start. This takes place on a 1.6 x 1.6 m carpet which is provided with various, differently coloured patterns. The pattern, a shape structure field, is put together in an orderly fashion in four and five parts. The lines, in addition, comprise electric-current conductors to a switching system. Belonging thereto is 5-tone music material which is played by 4 different instruments and is stored on a synthesizer such that it can be called up. Finally, there is a special operating mechanism so that a signal can also be called up by magnetic influence on the lines. These forming factors unite choreography and sound reproduction. The psycho/physical dual aspect is based on listening, stepping and self-expression occurring simultaneously because the participant cannot help but do what comes naturally, this constituting relaxation. From a therapeutic point of view, this fulfilment principle is not only of great import in psychiatry. Industrial society requires a relaxing, compensating element for the workplace.
