iTunes Visualizer: A Mesmerizing Music Lightshow

The iTunes Visualizer shows you what music might look like, if you could see it. Lights blink and change color. Shapes pulsate to the beat. Particles travel across the screen as though they live for the music.

When you start up Visualizer, you can't help but stare at it as the music somehow causes lines and balls of light to pulse and transform in an unending pattern of motion.

To see Visualizer, launch iTunes and start playing some music. Then, select Show Visualizer from the View menu. Visualizer will start playing in the iTunes window. Select Full Screen from the View menu to expand Visualizer to fill the entire screen of your Mac.

iTunes includes a few other Visualizers to choose from: Lathe, Jelly, Stix and iTunes Classic Visualizer. Select them from the View menu, in the Visualizer menu.

Please make the iTunes visualizer available on the iPad!!! It would be so much better! We are dying for the iTunes visualizer!!!!

I agree, the vizualizer on IPad would be incredible. It changes the mac experience completely in terms of the music/environmental capacities; having this in portable form on iPad would seem somehow revolutionary in terms of a portable experience.
