Screen display processing apparatus and method

A first content is selected by a user as a processing object. A change of at least a part of the first content is detected based on a time information from a timer. After the change is detected, a second content as a next processing object, a third content related to the first content, and a fourth content related to the second content, are acquired from a content information database. The second content, the third content and the fourth content, are symbolically laid out in a virtual space. The virtual space is visually presented to the user via a display.

Apparatus and method for presenting content

An image processing apparatus comprising an input unit which inputs an image, a first region calculating unit which calculates a first region in the image, a second region calculating unit which calculates a second region, which is surrounding the first region in the image and an image deformation unit which magnifies the image included in the first region while deforming an image included in the second region.
