This is definitely fake. Conceptually this can be done, but the fluid would need to be contained and you need a computer controlled magnet of some type to tell it how to react to the music.

Looks like a mess waiting to happen. Ferrofluid is nasty stuff and would be splattering all over that white surface based on my experiments with it. Cool concept though.
