Anti-Keyframe is a freeware VJ-application developed in Max/Msp/Jitter for Mac OS X.
Statement
The VJ applications available on the marked are far too complex because they tend to focus on both editing and performing. Eyes fixed on preview screens, mixing between multiple layers and manipulating a number of effects, you simply forget to pay attention to the music.
Concept
Because Anti-Keyframe is a performance tool only, the interaction can be simplified to fit a standard game-pad (image#1). By moving the physical interaction away from the computer and the eyes away from the screen you can start focusing on the present. Anti-Keyframe is handled like a musical instrument and after a bit of practice it will feel just like that (image#2).
