It allows creators and users of streaming media to organise their files into dynamic channels. Key features of the system include an inventive customised streaming media player, which can handle different file types, searchable archives, and real-time statistical analysis. The Frequency Clock: Free Media System is free and open source, designed specifically with arts, cultural and independent broadcasting in mind. Adam Hyde is from New Zealand.
