Nikk C is a turntablist from down under who is also an inventor/programmer who has coined the term Datablism. Datablism is the idea of using data programmatically to enhance turntablism, scratching, and djing. We sat down and discussed how he got into programming, scratching and the limitless possibilities of Datablism.
