<div>Maybe of interest to some here, I've been maintaining the<b>
frei0r</b> project for over 19 years now: a collective effort to
document, make available to use and preserve as portable and
interoperable as possible a free and open source collection of
plugins.<br>
</div>
<div>The<b> frei0r</b> project welcomes contributions from people
passionate about video effects. Its collection consists of almost 150
free video plugins made to work on any target platform (GNU/Linux,
Apple/OSX and MS/Win) without needing special video hardware. Anyone
can use these plugins to add a wide range of effects to video, such as
colour correction, blurring, and distortion. People use frei0r in live
performances, for video editing, in media art installations and even
for medical visualizations.<br>
</div>
<div>The<b> frei0r</b> project is an excellent resource for anyone
interested in algorithms for video transformation and effects. It
provides a wide range of open-source formulas available for free and
can be easily integrated into various software. Frei0r plugins are
ready to use inside FFMpeg, KdenLive, Shotcut, Flowblade, Pure Data,
VeeJay, LiVES, etc. <br>
</div>
<div>I've written a retrospective about<b> frei0r</b> on the occasion
of its version 2 release here:<br>

I hope you enjoy reading it. I also did my best to refresh some
history between important but somehow omitted parts of media art
history like Piksel festival and Montevideo/Time-Based Arts.<br>
