Hey, sometimes you can get nice little surprises. One of my own clips which I had contributed to VJ-oriented online-video-platform to share and remix website – videopong.net has been recently featured on the home page. The clip is free to download as long as you upload some of your own clips, so it adds to the overall pool of video art. Go on, share the fun!

MIDIloop Alpha
MIDIloop is an application for recording and playing back MIDI information.
(via: bugfug on vjforums)
Unlike a normal MIDI sequencer, MIDIloop is designed to record short loops of automation data in real-time and send them to a host application in sync with music or an external MIDI clock.It is designed for VJ’s who increasingly need to control multiple screens and more parameters than a single pair of hands could deal with.
It may also be useful for real-time music performances.(MIDIloop is currently for Windows only.)

For visually inclined artists who participate in video manipulation and evolve to progress visual revolution though the use of technology and methods of interaction and display, its a common thing to visualise and project on possibilities where things will go. Among artists that I speak to and share my views with, there is a growing interest towards creating and using new methods of interacting with video medium and content. With this being said, its quite apparent that quite a lot of technologies not only real but already have some place in functioning space, the only borders that seems to still persist are the actual costs and some additional implementation and bridging few of the technologies together. As far as possibilities, there are a lot of amazing platforms and ideas that are out there already. That’s a good news for us!
Few years ago there was this amazing presentation at TED- Ideas Worth Spreading Conference..I’m pretty sure it dates up to 4 years ago now and I would like to refresh some of the project ideas that currently cultivated to a
job that compnay called PerceptivePixel is doing now. Here at the following video you can see Jeff Han is manipulating sets of media and data objects using multi touch screen solution which his compnay is working on.

While recently browsing through sets of my favourite websites, I have come across a series of Workshops which have been captured at “Art & Code” conference that had taken place March 7-9th, 2009 at Carnegie Mellon, Pittsburg, PA.
The presentations given by each speaker brings source of inspiration and passion blended by the preferred methods of they chosen technology. Its good to see those people that initiate and strongly help to evolve the products that we all use from day to day basis in out visual creation pursuit. So, take a moment and watch some of these. Highly recommended.
