Avingle is a portmanteauofvideo and single. The neologism refers to music videos that can be mixedbyVJs in the same way that DJs mix regular music singles.
The word was coined by a group of VJs in London in late 2003, at the This Is Clip Hop party during ResFest, organised by the audio-visual artist collective "0.1". Vingles were subsequently seen in 0.1's launch party for Hewlett-Packard's HyPe Gallery project..
An example vingle would be Hexstatic's Timber.[1]
Apple Computer has applied for a trademark on the term.[2]
