Abstract

We describe a collaborative effort involving approximately 15 people creating material and tools for the "Elastic Charles", a hypermedia journal. The tools are used to create an additional structural layer upon video, sound and text material which has already been edited and is in a "final" format. This structural layer - hyperlayer -is used to link related portions of the journal's "stones" together to create the hypermedia environment. Our paradigm for linking in temporal media is presented.
