  Recently I stumbled upon this thing:
 https://code.google.com/p/glmixer/

 Michał

Had some time to try to compile it, and after a while I succeeded
(inside Musix3=Debian Wheezy, and Ubuntu 12.04).

Really good looking, the workflow is a little different from the
normal kind of launch-sampler screens and such, but really
interesting. If you are familiarized with tools that are present in
video or image editors (Align, Crop, Stretch, Rotate) you get an idea
of it to make some quick demos.

The only problem is that after a while working with it, video-loops
started to get stuck and if you restarted again GTmixer you got an
error, and you had to restart session (or do some investigations to
see what thread to kill to prevent this) to be able to work again on
it. It perhaps is due to running it at the same time with some other
audio programs and Jack, but not clear yet.

Anyway, really interesting application. I'm working on it.

 Hello dear all.

 Any suggestions or experiences?
 Thanks as always. 

 Hi Carlos,

 I have been developing a VJiing software for a while, called VJPirate
 (http://hitmuri.net/index.php/Software/VjPirate)
 It still needs a lot of rewriting and redesigning on the interface side
 but
 is usable and has been used for quite a while by a friend i am playing
 with
 (you can see some example of live perfs where the visuals are done with
 VjPirate on http://thehobartphase.net)
 It works on GNU/Linux and MacOSX.
 It is based on the principle of grids of images / shapes with
 parameters,
 and you can define patterns of scales for the parameters so that a
 change in
 the parameter impacts the whole grid. Everything can be MIDI, Audio and
 OSC
 controlled. You can extract different features from the audio (loudness,
 brightness, onsets ...) and use them to control visual parameters.

 If you want to try it, you should grab the development branch (called
 mac
 but it works on linux) on:
 https://code.launchpad.net/~hitmuri/vjpirate/mac

 Let me know if you have any questions.

 Regards,

 Florent

 BTW, I've realized your web, Hitmuri.net. IIRC, You had Freewheeling
 videos jamming and livelooping with an electronic drumkit long time
 ago, Were you? I enjoyed them very much. Freewheeling always have been
 my favourite livelooper, but lately I'm using sooperlooper because you
 can run it without X on a Raspberry PI, and it seems FW can't (I'm
 sure there is a way, but didn't researched it yet).

 It seems somebody in the FW is reviving it. It would be great.
