Fountain Music
The iTunes music player supports visual plug-ins, which produce an animation in sync with the playing music. Fountain Music is a visualizer which animates a fountain of soft particles to the beat of the music.
Features
- Visualize your music. Lose yourself in it.
- Change the fountain's shape or let it roam free.
- Control gravity. Imagine your music on another planet.
- Select a color scheme to match your music.
- Make particles fuzzier or sharper for no particular reason.
Requirements
- Mac OS X 10.1.5 or later.
- iTunes 4.0 or later.
- Fountain Music is a Universal Binary.
New in this Release (v 2.23)
- Fixed bug where Fountain Music would show a "broken" or otherwise glitchy display if started from a CoverFlow view.
- After a long period of meditation and reflection, Fountain Music has found a sense of purpose.
If you like Fountain Music...
Sure, Fountain Music is great, but there are a number of other spectacular iTunes visualizers out there you won't want to miss. These are a few of my favorites, be sure to try them out:
- G-Force and
Whitecap
- some of the original iTunes visualizers.
- magnetosphere
- apparently "the last iTunes visualizer you will ever want for". That may or may not be true, but either way it's a very nice visualizer.
- GasLight
- attractive visualizer which achieves some nice, subtle effects with relatively simple graphics.
