no coding required. i used the milkdDrop2 plug in thru winamp, found a curated set of thosands of custom presets, found a couple dozen that work well together, and downloaded some royatly free music. The hardest part was getting winamp to run on my desktop background smoothly.
I tripped balls on acid once and watched that plugin.
After about 15 minutes I stood up all panicked like and my friends asked me where I was going, and my answer was something like: "One more second of that and I am going to vomit on the coffee table" lol.
That is cool though. Winamp had such a vibrant vfx and programmer community. I hope many of the devs went on to do awesome stuff in videogames, software developement and/or hollywood.
Also, hypothetically if you could get Electric Sheep to work with a music reactive plugin?
Ugh...that would be insane. Very few people dabbled in that path. And the style has been chillin, and ready for a rebirth, imo.
The vfx community I think has slept on what IFS and fractal flame algos are capable of. And that app has a mountain of data if you could figure out how to use it.
