DIY DJ

An interactive music system to mix sounds using 'smart' classic cassette tapes.


In this music sampler installation, classic cassette tapes are equipped with RFID chips to mix audio samples into a cool dancy track on a special RFID reader table. Visitors can also record their own sample live and directly add it to the mix on the table.

DIY DJ is a continuation of the successful Bandjesland project first presented in 2010 at Tivoli in Utrecht. Presented at the Art Biennale 2012 in Venice, Italy. A permanent version was installed at the Ziggo Dome Member Club in Amsterdam in 2013.
