    Abstract: Generative media content (e.g., generative audio) can be played back across multiple playback devices concurrently. A coordinator device can receive a multi-channel stream of media content, with at least some channels comprising generative media content. The coordinator device transmits each of the channels to a plurality of playback devices. A first playback device plays back a first subset of the channels according to first playback responsibilities and a second playback device plays back a second subset of the channels according to second playback responsibilities. The first and/or second playback responsibilities can be dynamically modified over time, for example in response to one or more input parameters.

    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method comprises receiving a first signal indicative of a current emotional state of one or more users, receiving a second signal corresponding to a desired emotional state, and causing a playback device to play back generative audio. The method can further comprise, after receiving the first signal and the second signal, adjusting one or more audio characteristics of the generative audio to provide at least (i) a first portion of media content having a first parameter corresponding to the current emotional state, (ii) a second portion of media content having a second parameter different than the first parameter, and (iii) an nth portion of media content having an nth parameter corresponding to the desired emotional state.

    Abstract: In some embodiments, a method comprises receiving a first signal indicative of a current emotional state of a user, receiving a second signal corresponding to a desired emotional state of the user, and based on the first and second signals, generating a playlist of media content including a first item and an nth item. The first signal can be received from a wearable sensor. Generating the playlist can comprise selecting items of media content, and arranging the media content in a sequential order such that the playlist transitions from the first item toward the nth item. The method can further comprise playing back, via a playback device, at least the first item of the media content, and while playing back the first item, receiving a third signal indicative of an updated emotional state of the user.
