This is a Python program which allows you to generate and render a simulation that dynamically reacts to any audio file. This is part of a more ambitious project to create a software which allows users to easily create music visualizers. Currently there are 4 supported simulation types: a spring-based visualizer, a particle-based visualizer, a pressure-grid-based visualizer, and a branching visualizer.

Motivations:
I want to build this program out into a tool which allows anyone to create a visualizer for their music very easily. I am also enjoying learning about fluid and hard-body physics simulations, fractals, and audio analysis through this project.
Implementation:
This application was written in Python and uses pygame to create the simulations and librosa to handle the audio analysis.
Future Work:
- Fixing the branching and grid simulations to work as intended
- Fixing the multi-frequency impulses
- Adding multi-frequency capabilities to all simulations
