Resolume, the VJ app – now really a live visual and audiovisual tool – has turned ten. The developers this week look back at that landmark, and reveal the first-ever license owner, the Dutch VJ team Vision Impossible.
They’re making the original Resolume 1.0 installer available. I’m tempted to drop this on my netbook and see if I can make it work under WINE. (Any tips, anyone?) But for most of us, 2004’s Resolume 2.0 is the more familiar face of the tool – you can fantasize about it running on a tablet, as in the mockup with the iPad below. If you’re on the Mac, you may not have seen it until Resolume 3’s rewrite (“Avenue.”)
We’re blessed to have such mature live visual tools today, and the quality of work has accordingly improved alongside. If you’ve been waiting to invest in Resolume, now through May 27 is a great time – absolutely everything, from clips to licenses, even including educational pricing, is half-off.
