Data Jockey

Data Jockey is a FLOSS software project, in essence a digital disc jockey tool which leverages audio meta-data (both computed and manually added by the user) in order to allow for new approaches in content selection and juxtaposition. While there are other software tools that allow users to DJ digitally, none focus as heavily on search and comparison between audio works using audio meta-data.

Documentation / Description:

For an overview of and details about Data Jockey please refer to the: Data Jockey Documentation page.

Data Jockey has been built and run successfully on Linux and OSX but, the interpreter does not yet work on OSX. It is unlikely that it will build without major work on Windoze.

Data Jockey was developed on and is mostly targeted for Linux machines.
