KeyWorx is a Multi-User Cross Media Synthesiser - a distributed application that allows multiple players to generate, synthesise and process images, sounds and text within a shared real-time environment. As an instrument, it allows a community of players to dynamically control and modify all aspects of digital media in a collaborative performance. KeyWorx can, for instance, enable a jam session between a visual artist and a musician in shared time and space, or between a DJ and a VJ in different locations. Synesthesia - the notion that we can 'hear images' or 'see sound' inspires KeyWorx. The makers imagine a synaesthetic environment in which music can be visualised and images can make music.
