Abstract

A device includes a display unit that displays a tile display comprising multiple rows and columns of tiles upon a display unit of a device, wherein each of the tiles represents an item of content or a group of items of content. The device associates multiple different linear axes with the tile display, wherein the multiple different linear axes intersect at a center tile of the tile display and wherein multiple different properties are associated with the center tile. The device receives user input associated with selecting one of the linear axes of the tile display; identifies a search parameter based on the selected one of the linear axes and based on at least one of the multiple different properties associated with the center tile; and causes the tile display to include search results resulting from a search of the content catalog with the identified search parameter.
