AVS is part of Winamp and has been recently open-sourced, and G-Force was licensed for use in iTunes and Windows Media Center and is presently the flagship product for Andy O'Meara's software startup company, SoundSpectrum. In particular, MilkDrop by Ryan Geiss, G-Force by Andy O'Meara, and Advanced Visualization Studio (AVS) by Nullsoft became popular music visualizations. By 1999, there were several dozen freeware non-trivial music visualizers in distribution. Subsequently, computer music visualisation became widespread in the mid to late 1990s as applications such as Winamp (1997), Audion (1999), and SoundJam (2000). One of the first modern music visualization programs was the open-source, multi-platform Cthugha (1994).
#VIDEO MUSIC VISUALIZATION MOVIE#
The 1984 movie Electric Dreams prominently made use of one, although as a pre-generated effect, rather than calculated in real-time.
#VIDEO MUSIC VISUALIZATION GENERATOR#
Music and audio players were available on early home computers, Sound to Light Generator (1985, Infinite Software) used the ZX Spectrum's cassette player for example. Music visualisation was first pioneered in Great Britain by Fred Judd. The idea was to create a visual exploration that could be implemented into a Hi-Fi stereo system. in 1976, and designed by the initiator of the home version of Pong, Robert Brown. The first electronic music visualizer was the Atari Video Music introduced by Atari Inc. The unit never gained enough popularity and was in production for only a year.
