Resolume was born because we wanted to VJ better. Back in 1998 VJ-ing was done with VHS tapes and a video mixer so it was hard to quickly improvise video to music. Tempo could not be adjusted, or even reversed and effects were limited. We thought software would allow us to improvise more and be a better VJ. We could not find any VJ software that did what we wanted so we started programming our own. We quickly realized our software was much better than our VJ-ing so we work on Resolume full-time since 2002.
