Correct me or add stuff here if you all have more experience at this than I do, but I would describe video jamming/video jockeying as doing exactly what a DJ does for audio, but with images and/or audio. What this means is real-time multimedia collaging, making images dynamically appear (preferably in large-scale formats such as projections) in order to create a certain mood , a vibe, whatever. For example, in august I'm going to (equipment willing) perform with a DJ who will be doing the audio side. I'll be creating the images and video loops beforehand (just as a DJ starts off with certain raw materials -- my friend's going to bring all sorts of old records & found sounds) and then we'll perform together, work off the directions the other person takes, etc. to make a unique performance. Does that help to explain it? I'm pretty new to this stuff, but I heard the term "video jockeying" and "video jamming" and am basically giving you my idea of what I think it is...
