a product that combines moving images and sound to create a visual experience over time

Movies (noun) means: a product that combines moving images and sound to create a visual experience over time. It emerges from video, music, make, products: the moving images and sound interact to form a unified perceptible sequence that unfolds over time. In the EmergenceLexicon it sits at computed level 16, chaining down to the four foundations (space, time, energy, pattern).
