ABSTRACT
The paper introduces a novel approach for crowd curation of ambient music played in venues using physical Near Field Communication (NFC) enabled check-ins. The CheckinDJ jukebox system uses NFC enabled objects that are linked to individuals social network accounts. CheckinDJ can thus be regarded as a crowdsourced DJ that curates an evolving music playlist based on the musical preferences of those present at a location at any given time. In this paper we present the design and operation of the currently deployed system along with highlights of the promising potential of this novel concept.

From raw audio to a seamless mix: creating an automated DJ system for Drum and Bass
We present the open-source implementation of the first fully automatic and comprehensive DJ system, able to generate seamless music mixes using songs from a given library much like a human DJ does.
The proposed system is built on top of several enhanced ...
Manipulating music: multimodal interaction for DJs
CHI '04: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsIn this paper we consider the general goal of supporting physical manipulation of digital audio in a specific context: the performance disk jockey (DJ) seeking to migrate from vinyl to digital media. We classify both the DJ's traditional processes and ...
We want more: human-computer collaboration in mobile social video remixing of music concerts
CHI '11: Proceedings of the SIGCHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing SystemsRecording and publishing mobile video clips from music concerts is popular. There is a high potential to increase the concert's perceived value when producing video remixes from individual video clips and using them socially. A digital production of a ...
