AniMusic Pipe Dream was once one of my favorite animation.
I have attempted creating something similar, but much much simpler with VPython.
I have created a piano keyboard, self-playing the tune from a midi file for a selected track.
It seemed rather difficult to decode a midi file to use it for the animation. The animation part is really simple, key-up, key-down, but the timing is critical, which should be excerpted from the midi file.
Also, you have to create real-time midi-sound, fast enough to cope with the animation.
In short, my sample works fine with some songs, but is not that much successful for "high tempo" songs. Also, to play the full song, it is better to have several "instruments",playing different tracks simultaneously, but I could not go that far, yet. Compared to AniMusic, what I have is really very primitive I should say.

Subject: [Visualpython-users] VPython Version of Animusic?
I was looking at the sample music-video
clips &c at this site . . .
http://www.animusic.com/
. . . and I was wondering if this kind
of thing might be a useful area of
exploration for VPython. Perhaps some
entertaining videos could be produced
to place on YouTube and similar sites
to increase VPython's visibility.
Does anyone have experience that might
be useful in this area?
