The milkdrop visualizer format is still around and kicking, but yeah, visualizers aren’t built into nearly any desktop software anymore.
I have an old formative memory of a big crt TV sitting on the corner of the librarian front desk (I think in elementary school?) with really mesmerizing animations on it. Looking back, they were definitely some sort of procedurally animated art thing, or much more likely they were music visualizers. Maybe given the year they were just VHS’s of trippy computer graphics in the same style that we’d eventually see with visualizers.
No matter what it was, it sparked a lifelong interest in that sort of art and style.
Damn, I should pick back up my old Processing language image manipulation projects. Can do some real trippy stuff really easily by just doing arbitrary math on pixel color values and x,y coordinates.
Anyone know of any glitch art communities on lemmy?
