FreeJ is a vision mixer: an instrument for realtime video manipulation used in the fields of dance teather, veejaying, medical visualisation and TV. FreeJ lets you interact with multiple layers of video, filtered by effect chains and then mixed together. Controllers can be scripted for keyboard, midi and joysticks, to manipulate images, movies, live cameras, particle generators, text scrollers, flash animations and more. All the resulting video mix can be shown on multiple and remote screens, encoded into a movie and streamed live to the internet. FreeJ can be controlled locally or remotely, also from multiple places at the same time; it can be automated via javascript to be operated via MIDI, Joysticks, wiimotes, mices and keyboards. Screenshots Please be patient if this page will take some time to load, or will ask you to download browser plugins: below are some examples of media produced with FreeJ that require them. We hope in a close future to have an open source solution for all this. First some images: Now a cool video done by VJ Jahruhn using FreeJ :) blip.tv accepts upload of videos done with FreeJ (ogg/theora), the mozilla embeded player shouldn't be flash, please contact us if you can help making a freej plugin for firefox ;) Here an example of live stream, when running: This player is java (itheora) offered as a frontend for live streams hosted by giss.tv
