Highlights BA Major Projects 2006: Mute - VJ application
Mute is a free, open source, cross platform VJ application created by Gareth Jones for his Major Project on the BA (Hons) Interactive Media Production. In their final year, our BA students complete an independent Major Project as the central component of their degree.
Mute has received an outstanding response from tutors and interactive and music communities alike. Gareth is set for a bright future in Open Source software development.
Mute allows VJs to preview and project a mix of 3 different movies, animations, live satellite images and Flickr images and apply filters to each of the three source images projected. It also allows users to upload new movies and live feeds. Following Open Source principles, Gareth will soon be releasing an API to developers, allowing anyone to create new filters with only a small amount of code.
You will soon be able to download a version of the application from the Mute website, where you can now view a preview at www.mutevj.com

Albumart.org
Saturday, 25 February, 2006 - 23:35
Mats Staugaard, a student on the MA Interactive Media programme, has produced a web 2.0 style tool which allows you to easily find album art for your digital music collection - albumart.org. Albumart.org has been getting great feedback on digg.com.
This cool tool uses the publicly available Amazon API, which makes it a great example of new mashup technologies which do things users want them to do :)
Mats is looking for anyone who can help with translation to other languages - if you have time, help out.
