pre-programmed stand-alone installation

JimGilmore's icon

I'm new to Max, so sorry if I have missed something very basic:

I want to build an installation that will dynamically build a movie with some random audio and video files partially triggered by sensors.

I understand Max's versatility for creating instruments, processors, mixers etc. but I don't understand how to build a programmed stand-alone project that would play all day in a gallery (some content looping). Could someone please steer me in the right direction…Do I need additional software??? I know how to build most of the media assets: jpg, mov, gif, wav…so its not that.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
