1. A device, comprising:
a processing system including a processor; and
a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processing system, facilitate performance of operations, the operations comprising:
receiving a first media content from an electronic device of a user, the first media content having been recorded by the electronic device of the user in response to a first communication between the electronic device of the user and a shared electronic device presenting the first media content, resulting in consumption of the first media content;
receiving first information describing at least one condition under which the user consumed the first media content on the shared electronic device and the electronic device of the user that recorded the first media content, wherein the first information includes an identification of a second device of a second person proximate to the electronic device of the user during consumption of the first media content, and wherein the second device of the second person is detected by the electronic device of the user;
storing the first media content and one or more data elements that describe the first information;
receiving a search request from a first mobile device of the user, wherein the search request includes at least a portion of the first information and at least a portion of metadata describing the first media content, wherein the at least a portion of the first information includes the identification of the second device of the second person proximate to the electronic device of the user during the consumption of the first media content, wherein the metadata is specific to the first media content, wherein the metadata is, at least in part, generated and dynamically updated subsequent to the consumption of the first media content, resulting in updated metadata, wherein the search request aggregates the portion of the first information and the updated metadata, wherein the updated metadata includes a search criterion based on the first media content, and wherein the search request is generated according to a user speech interface via an application operated by the first mobile device;
receiving a modification to the portion of the first information according to previous search requests by the user to generate a modified search request; and
performing a federated search according to the modified search request to cause at least a portion of the first media content to be retrieved and presented to the user via the first mobile device.
