Custom music visualizer

by @vectordust

I've been working on a custom music visualizer application the past few weeks. In my free time I produce electronic/ambient music and I've been unhappy with the existing visualizer tools and wanted something that gave me more control over the final results to try and better compliment my work/achieve my creative vision better. so far it's been a lot of fun to work on and it feels incredibly gratifying seeing it come together when paired with my songs. This was my first proof of concept that I rendered with it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crqPvKmMWUg it's a bit basic, but still stylized and I think it suits that sort of drone-y ambient sound well. I have a more traditional "visualizer" for a different song in the works, showcasing a lot more complexity in the rendering engine. Hoping to put that one out today.
