Fluid Tunes brings iSight gestures to iTunes, better than multi-touch?

FluidTunes IconFluidTunes is a new application from Majic Jungle Software that aims to make browsing your music even more fun than with your multi-touch trackpad. Using the built-in iSight camera that comes on almost every Mac shipped, this application watches and then acts upon your gestures in what appears to be a very efficient manner, according to the video. It has its own interface that allows you to browse your music in a cover flow like fashion, as well as play and pause it. Although it may not be the easiest way to change the song while you’re at work, it will sure be great to show off to all your friends.

FluidTunes is a Universal Binary, meaning it will run on both PowerPC and Intel based Macs. Better yet, it is only a 0.7MB download and is 100% free, so there is no reason for you to not try this out as long as you run Mac OS X 10.4.11 or higher.

Majic Jungle Software also makes iSight Screensavers and DuckDuckDuck 2.0. There appears to be a solo developer behind all of this coding, so hopefully updates and support keep coming for these apps!

  1. It's good for a demo, but nowhere near as practical as cursor-selectable or keyboard buttons.
